From an artistic point of view, the value of On young chinese lies in its subversive enrichment of the image system of traditional prose. This paper not only shows the "Lao" in many aspects with national, traditional and household names such as "Sunset Photo", "Wild Cattle", "Autumn Willow" and "Meteorite", thus systematically criticizing the decline of the Qing Empire; Moreover, the rich images provided by the new era, new life, new knowledge and new things such as "Dead Sea", "Pyramid" and "trans-siberian railway" are widely used, thus subtly guiding readers' eyes to a broader, richer, more vivid and more dynamic new world outside the Chinese empire.

In terms of stylistic language, The Story of young chinese is also very representative. The sentence pattern with alternating length and verse style, especially the introduction or creation of new words and images mentioned above, has undoubtedly subverted the vocabulary and syntax system used in China ancient prose. Stylistically, The Tale of young chinese is a blend of Ci Fu, Si Liu, verse and ancient Chinese, and it moves freely between different genres, which shows the author's profound artistic skills in operating the style. In the evolution history of China's literary language and style, Liang Qichao's prose is undoubtedly a form of transition from classical Chinese to vernacular Chinese, which directly led to the trend of the May 4th vernacular Chinese movement.
