An important literary achievement of this play is to create the typical image of Shylock, a profit-seeking, ruthless loan shark.

The main plot of "The Merchant of Venice" is based on ancient legends. The plot unfolds through three clues: one is Portia's choice of marriage, Bassanio chooses the lead box to marry Portia; one is the love and elopement of Shylock's daughter Jessica and Antonio's friend Lorenzo; and the other is the love and elopement of Shylock's daughter Jessica and Antonio's friend Lorenzo; The main plot is the "pound of flesh" contract dispute caused by the Venetian merchant Antonio borrowing 3,000 yuan from the Jewish loan shark Shylock in order to help Bassanio get married.

Shylock hates Antonio because Antonio lends money without interest, affects the loan sharking industry, and insults himself. He takes advantage of the signing of the loan contract to set a trap and wait for revenge.

At the end of the nineteenth century, nationalism was surging. At that time, various large-scale expositions were emerging one after another, and the first Olympic Games was also held in 1896. In addition to seeking commercial interests, these international activities have a cosmopolitan appearance, but they are actually a competitive mentality of nationalism. Turning art into a large-scale exposition took the Venice Biennale, which was born at this time, as its origin. It was also because of the influence of this nationalist trend that it laid the prototype of inviting countries to participate in the exhibition.

Venice is shaped like a fish, and the Green Garden Castle is located at the eastern end of the fish. It was originally the location of St. Peter's Cathedral.
