With the development of network, people enter the era of information explosion, and the social software with voice, video and animation features gradually replaces the single text message and telephone function. QQ, WeChat and Weibo have become the main platform for young people to socialize. With the rise of social software, emojis begin to appear and add lubricant to the establishment of flexible relations in interpersonal communication. Emojis permeate into flexible communication by means of complementing words and regulating atmosphere. The reason why emojis play an important role is that they show individuality, alleviating depression and help interpersonal communication. Still, their development is not perfect, and we need to work together to create a clean network environment.
