[0002] With the continuous development of science and technology, virtual items are playing an increasingly important role in people's daily lives. In order to guide users to participate in the circulation of virtual items through task posting, task posting platforms of different applications need to manage both tasks and virtual items simultaneously. This obviously increases the pressure on task posting platforms, resulting in high code redundancy and reduced rationality. In this case, virtual item delivery services are a feasible solution. However, different task posting platforms distribute virtual items at different frequencies, making it difficult for third parties to provide a unified virtual item delivery service for each task posting platform.

[0055] After the traversal is completed, the marked dates are deduplicated, and the marked dates that do not fall into the second period of the target are filtered out.
[0056] The cycle segmentation result is determined based on the start point, end point, and each retained marked date of the second cycle of the target.
[0057] In one embodiment, the step of sending an order based on the virtual item corresponding to each of the target first cycles to obtain a virtual item request order includes:
[0058] For each target first period, if the target first period corresponds to an integer period in the period segmentation result, the virtual item sending order corresponding to the target first period is taken as the target order;
[0059] If the target first period corresponds to a non-integer period in the period segmentation result, then calculate the quantity information of the first virtual item in the non-integer period based on the virtual item order sent according to the target first period;
[0060] The quantity information of the second virtual item is determined based on the target orders and the quantity information of the first virtual item in each non-integer period;
[0061] Based on the quantity information of the second virtual item, determine the virtual item request order.

[0075] This application provides a periodic management method in which a first virtual item can be distributed by the virtual item management terminal in a first period. Compared to the original situation where virtual items need to be distributed by the task publishing platform in a second period, the first period is shorter than the second period, thus shortening the user's virtual item collection time. Furthermore, although the second periods of each task publishing platform are different, this application embodiment can use the same method to complete the distribution at the frequency corresponding to the first period, and adapt to each task publishing platform, requesting virtual items from the task publishing platform at the corresponding frequency of the second period. This ensures the balance of virtual item circulation within the virtual item management terminal itself, while masking the differences in the second periods of different task publishing platforms, and realizing batch distribution services.

[0081] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the embodiments of this application.
[0082] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or server that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.
[0083] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages disclosed in the embodiments of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this application.
[0084] Hereinafter, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this embodiment, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0085] This application provides a cycle management method, which is applied to a virtual item management terminal. The application scenarios of the virtual item management terminal are described below.
[0086] As an intermediate management platform, the virtual item management terminal can communicate with the user's electronic devices (including the client for logging in) and the task publishing platform, thereby decoupling the functions of the task publishing platform and eliminating the need for the task publishing platform to manage virtual items.
[0087] This application does not limit the task publishing platform; it can be considered any task publishing platform connected to the aforementioned virtual item management terminal, or any task publishing platform that subscribes to the virtual item management service of the aforementioned virtual item management terminal. For example, the task publishing platform can be a game program server, which can publish game tasks to users, but users can obtain virtual item rewards from the game tasks through the virtual item management terminal in this application embodiment, and the server can decouple the management functions related to virtual item rewards in the game tasks. As another example, the task publishing platform can be a live streaming program server, which can publish live streaming tasks to users, but users can obtain virtual item rewards from the live streaming tasks through the virtual item management terminal in this application embodiment, and the server can decouple the management functions related to virtual item rewards in the live streaming tasks. This application does not limit the type or number of task publishing platforms connected.
[0088] In this embodiment, the account can be understood as the account held by a user performing tasks on the aforementioned task publishing platform. This user is entitled to receive virtual items as rewards from the task publishing platform for performing tasks; in this embodiment, these virtual items are designated as the first virtual item. However, in this embodiment, the first virtual item can be distributed by the virtual item management terminal. That is, the task publishing platform can entrust the virtual item management terminal to distribute the items through a service agreement. It should be noted that for each task publishing platform, the platform itself distributes the first virtual item in a second cycle, and the second cycle can differ between different task publishing platforms. Because the virtual item management terminal performs the distribution operation, the platform no longer needs to distribute the first virtual item. However, the virtual item management terminal needs to request the distribution of the second virtual item from the platform based on the second cycle, thereby maintaining the balance of virtual item circulation at the virtual item management terminal and even obtaining distribution revenue from the virtual item management terminal. The virtual item management system executes the distribution operation in the first cycle, and the second cycle is longer than the first cycle. Therefore, for users, the virtual item collection cycle is significantly shortened, which can significantly improve the user experience, increase user stickiness to the task publishing platform, and encourage users to continue to complete tasks, thereby improving the task completion rate.
[0089] Based on the application scenarios mentioned above, in this scenario, Figure 1 This document illustrates a flowchart of a cycle management method provided in an embodiment of this application. This method also operates on a virtual item management terminal. The embodiments of this application provide the method operation steps described in the embodiments or flowcharts, but based on conventional or non-inventive labor, more or fewer operation steps may be included. The order of steps listed in the embodiments is merely one possible execution order among many steps and does not represent the only execution order. In actual systems, terminal devices, or server products, the method can be executed sequentially according to the embodiments or accompanying drawings, or in parallel (e.g., in a parallel processor or multi-threaded processing environment). The above method may include:
[0090] S101. Perform virtual item delivery statistics for each account according to the first frequency to obtain the virtual item delivery orders corresponding to each account in each first period. The virtual item delivery orders include the quantity information of the first virtual item sent to the account by the virtual item management terminal in the first period.
[0091] In this embodiment, the first cycle is the cycle for the virtual item management terminal to distribute virtual items. The virtual items distributed to users by the virtual item management terminal are the first virtual items, and the virtual items requested by the virtual item management terminal from the task publishing platform are the second virtual items. Step S101 can be executed in batches, allowing the virtual item management terminal to process virtual item delivery orders in batches and perform distribution services in batches, thus improving the efficiency of the distribution service. The quantity of the first virtual items can be determined based on the user's task execution status on the task publishing platform, and can be referenced from existing technologies; however, this embodiment does not limit this.
[0092] After a virtual item order is generated, the virtual item management terminal can send the first virtual item to the corresponding account. In other words, the delivery service can be executed once every first cycle.
[0093] S102. For the target account, perform the following operation, where the target account represents any of the above accounts:
[0094] Obtain the target second period corresponding to the target account. The target second period is the period during which the task publishing platform pays the second virtual item to the virtual item management terminal. The target account obtains the first virtual item by executing the task in the task publishing platform.
[0095] Determine each target first period associated with the target second period, wherein the target second period represents any second period, and any second period includes at least two first periods;
[0096] Based on the virtual items sent for the first period of each of the above objectives, a virtual item request order is obtained. The virtual item request order is used to request the second virtual item for the second period of the above objectives from the task publishing platform.
[0097] In this embodiment, the technical solution in step S102 can be performed in the same way for each user corresponding to each account. The following is a detailed description using any account, i.e., the target account, as an example.
[0098] For the target account, the virtual item management terminal can determine the task performed by the user corresponding to the target account and the task publishing platform where the task is located. The task publishing platform should normally issue the first virtual item when the user performs the task, but in this embodiment, the virtual item management terminal issues it on behalf of the user. The method implemented in this application is the same for any second cycle. The following details the virtual item request order within any second cycle, i.e., the target second cycle. Of course, after receiving the virtual item request order, a request can be made to the task publishing platform to issue the second virtual item. This maintains the balance of virtual item circulation in the virtual item management terminal and can even generate additional virtual item revenue for the issuance service.
[0099] like Figure 2 As shown, the first period of each target associated with the second period of the target is defined above, including:
[0100] S201. Perform period segmentation on the second period of the above target based on the first period to obtain the period segmentation result.
[0101] To ensure that a unique segmentation result can be obtained for each target in the second cycle, and to enable batch execution of the technical solution of this application, this application provides a segmentation method, including:
[0102] S301. Based on the position of the start date of the first cycle in the week, obtain the target value.
[0103] The first cycle is the delivery cycle of the virtual item management terminal, which can be set. For example, a delivery cycle is from Sunday to Saturday. This application will use this as an example. If the starting date is Sunday, then the target value is Sunday.
[0104] S302. For each date in the second period of the above objective, perform the following operations:
[0105] Determine whether the above date corresponds to the above target value.
[0106] If so, mark the above date.
[0107] Otherwise, find the target date corresponding to the most recent target value before the above date and mark the above target date.
[0108] After the traversal is complete, duplicate dates are removed from each marked date, and marked dates that do not fall within the second period of the target are filtered out.
[0109] Based on the start point, end point, and the marked dates retained for the second cycle of the above objectives, the cycle segmentation results are determined.
[0110] Specifically, all dates in the target second cycle can be obtained and iterated through. During the iteration, it is determined whether a date is a Sunday. If it is, the date is marked, which means marking it as the start date of a first cycle. If not, the offset of the number of days before the date is found, and the Sunday is obtained by moving the offset forward by days. This Sunday is also marked. Then, all marked dates are deduplicated, and dates that do not fall within the target second cycle are filtered out, thus obtaining all the start dates of the first cycle in the target second cycle.
[0111] For example, if the target second cycle is from May 10, 2022 to June 9, 2022, then the cycle segmentation results are 5.10-5.14, 5.15-5.21, 5.22-5.28, 5.29-6.4, and 6.5-6.9. Among them, 5.15, 5.22, 5.29, and 6.5 are the marked start dates of the first cycle after deduplication and falling into the target second cycle.
[0112] Among them, 5.15-5.21, 5.22-5.28, and 5.29-6.4 are all whole cycles, while 5.10-5.14 and 6.5-6.9 are all non-whole cycles.
[0113] S202. All whole periods in the above period segmentation results are determined as the target first period.
[0114] Using the previous example, 5.15-5.21, 5.22-5.28, and 5.29-6.4 are all whole cycles, and they can all be called the first cycle of the target.
[0115] S203. In response to the presence of non-integer periods in the above period segmentation results, the integer period to which the non-integer period belongs is also determined as the target first period.
[0116] Taking the cycle segmentation results as 5.10-5.14, 5.15-5.21, 5.22-5.28, 5.29-6.4, 6.5-6.9 as an example, it is obvious that the complete first cycle involving May is 5.8-5.14, 5.15-5.21, 5.22-5.28, 5.29-6.4, 6.5-6.11. Therefore, 5.8-5.14 and 6.5-6.11 are also the target first cycle.
[0117] Specifically, the above-mentioned order placement based on the virtual items corresponding to the first cycle of each of the above-mentioned objectives, and the receipt of virtual item request orders, include:
[0118] For each target first period, if the target first period corresponds to an integer period in the period segmentation result, the virtual item delivery order corresponding to the target first period is taken as the target order. If the target first period corresponds to a non-integer period in the period segmentation result, the quantity information of the first virtual item in the non-integer period is calculated based on the virtual item delivery order corresponding to the target first period. Based on each target order and the quantity information of the first virtual item in each non-integer period, the quantity information of the second virtual item is determined. Based on the quantity information of the second virtual item, the virtual item request order is determined.
[0119] The quantity of the first virtual item in a non-integer cycle is necessarily less than the quantity of the first virtual item in the virtual item delivery order of its integer cycle. In some embodiments, the virtual item delivery order also records the quantity of the first virtual item generated daily. Based on this information, the quantity of the first virtual item in a non-integer cycle can be statistically analyzed. According to the method described above, the virtual item circulation balance on the virtual item management end can be maintained. Simply put, the number of first virtual items delivered corresponds to the number of second virtual items received.
[0120] However, the virtual item management terminal cannot obtain distribution revenue in this way. In order to obtain distribution revenue and maintain the long-term normal operation of the virtual item management terminal and obtain sufficient virtual item reserves, in some embodiments, a first quantity can be obtained based on the sum of the quantity information of the first virtual item in each of the above-mentioned target orders and the quantity information of the first virtual item in each of the above-mentioned non-integer periods. For each target order, a second quantity is obtained based on the performance of the above-mentioned task by the user corresponding to the above-mentioned account within the target first period in which the target order is located. For each non-integer period, a third quantity is determined based on the performance of the above-mentioned task by the user corresponding to the above-mentioned account within the above-mentioned non-integer period. Based on the above-mentioned first quantity, the above-mentioned second quantity, and the above-mentioned third quantity, the quantity information of the second virtual item is obtained.
[0121] It is evident that the first quantity is the same as the quantity of the first virtual items distributed, meaning that the second and third quantities represent the distribution revenue. Specifically, the second quantity can be calculated based on the user's performance of the task within the first target period of the target order and the service agreement; the third quantity is determined based on the user's performance of the task within the non-integer period and the service agreement. The service agreement specifies how the virtual item management terminal collects additional virtual items from the task publishing platform. Both the second and third quantities are related to the service agreement, which can stipulate distribution revenue. Since the service agreement is obtained through agreement with the task publishing platform, the additional revenue obtained under this agreement is beneficial for storing sufficient virtual items relative to the task publishing platform for subsequent distribution services. This ensures long-term support for the daily operations of the virtual item management terminal and provides sustainable long-term distribution services to the task publishing platform.
[0122] This application provides a periodic management method in which a first virtual item can be distributed by the virtual item management terminal in a first period. Compared to the original situation where virtual items need to be distributed by the task publishing platform in a second period, the first period is shorter than the second period, thus shortening the user's virtual item collection time. Furthermore, although the second periods of each task publishing platform are different, this application embodiment can use the same method to complete the distribution at the frequency corresponding to the first period, and adapt to each task publishing platform, requesting virtual items from the task publishing platform at the corresponding frequency of the second period. This ensures the balance of virtual item circulation within the virtual item management terminal itself, while masking the differences in the second periods of different task publishing platforms, and realizing batch distribution services.
[0123] Please refer to Figure 3 This diagram illustrates a block diagram of a periodic management device in this embodiment, applied to a virtual item management terminal. The device includes:
[0124] The delivery module 101 is used to perform virtual item delivery statistics for each account according to a first frequency, and obtain the virtual item delivery orders corresponding to each account in each first period. The virtual item delivery orders include the quantity information of the first virtual item sent from the virtual item management terminal to the account in the first period.
[0125] The cycle management module 102 is used to perform the following operations on a target account, where the target account represents any of the aforementioned accounts:
[0126] Obtain the target second period corresponding to the target account. The target second period is the period during which the task publishing platform pays the second virtual item to the virtual item management terminal. The target account obtains the first virtual item by executing the task in the task publishing platform.
[0127] Determine each target first period associated with the target second period, wherein the target second period represents any second period, and any second period includes at least two first periods;
[0128] Based on the virtual items sent for the first period of each of the above objectives, a virtual item request order is obtained. The virtual item request order is used to request the second virtual item for the second period of the above objectives from the task publishing platform.
[0129] In one embodiment, the aforementioned determination of each target first period associated with the target second period includes;
[0130] The second period of the above target is divided into periods based on the first period to obtain the period division result;
[0131] All integer periods in the above period segmentation results are determined as the first target period;
[0132] In response to the presence of non-integer periods in the above period segmentation results, the integer periods to which the non-integer periods belong are also determined as the target first period.
[0133] In one embodiment, the above method further includes:
