Abstract: The construction and quantitative analysis of the relationship network of characters in literary works is an important content of intelligent interpretation of literary works. This article takes Mr. Lu Yao’s literary work "The Ordinary World" as the research object and uses complex network analysis methods to construct and analyze the social network in the literary works. Firstly, the social network relationship in the work is extracted, where the characters in the novel correspond to the nodes in the network, the relationships between the characters correspond to the edges of the network, and the number of times the characters appear together in each chapter corresponds to the weight of the edges. Then we analyze the betweenness and aggregation coefficient correlation， hierarchical clustering and predicting link on the constructed network. The experimental results show that the character relationship network of Ordinary World is a heterogenous network with small-world characteristics. This research is helpful to promote the analysis of character relationship network in literary works.

Key words: Ordinary World, literary works, social networks, network indicators
