[0018] In summary, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial technical effects: by acquiring real-time user consumption data and calculating the user's current adjustment value in real time, the unlocking conditions are adjusted when the user has not paid for a long time, so as to maximize the user's ability to read the book content, thereby improving the user's reading experience and increasing user stickiness. Attached Figure Description

[0019] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for unlocking reading chapters provided in an embodiment of this application;

[0020] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0021] To make the purpose, technical solution, and advantages of this application clearer, the following description is provided in conjunction with the appendix. Figures 1-2 The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the application.

[0022] This application provides a method for unlocking reading chapters in an e-book reading software system.

[0023] The embodiment takes reading software as an application example to specifically illustrate the above method. In actual implementation, the above method can also be used for other reading platforms, which is not limited in the embodiment.

[0024] With reference to the drawings in detail and with specific reference to Figure 1 A method for unlocking a reading chapter, comprising the steps of:

[0025] S10: Obtain a first unlocking price, and push the first unlocking price to the user when receiving information triggering a buried point; for example, push the normal unlocking price to the user after the user finishes reading a free chapter or the user actively clicks a paid unlocking button.

[0026] S20: Collect real-time data of the user, and calculate an adjustment value of the user; wherein the real-time data comprises a user recharge value and a consumption value; for example, collect the current recharge amount and consumption amount of the user, and calculate the recharge rate and consumption rate and the like to evaluate the consumption ability of the user and identify the user with low consumption ability.

[0027] S30: When the adjustment value is lower than a preset value, reduce the first unlocking price to a second unlocking price according to the adjustment value; in this way, the unlocking amount of some users is appropriately reduced.

[0028] S40: When there is no paid behavior within a preset time after the first unlocking price is pushed, and the information triggering the buried point is received again, push the second unlocking price to the user; for example, after ten days of receiving the first unlocking price for the first time, and the adjustment value of the user is low, it is considered that the user has difficulty in payment, and in order to let the user read the entire book and improve the user experience, the cost of unlocking the remaining chapter content is appropriately reduced.

[0029] The technical scheme of the present application obtains real-time user consumption data, calculates the current adjustment value of the user in real time, adjusts the unlocking condition when the user has not paid for a long time, maximizes the reading of the user, improves the reading experience of the user, and increases the user stickiness.

[0030] On the basis of the embodiment, an adjustment parameter is calculated for each real-time data, and the adjustment value is obtained by accumulating all the adjustment parameters. Further, the adjustment parameter calculation method is:

[0031]

[0032] Wherein, x is the value of the real-time data of the current dimension, θ is the weight coefficient of the current dimension, T is the decay coefficient or the increase coefficient of the current dimension, and θ and T are both preset constants. For example, when the dimension of the real-time data is the consumption value, the weight coefficient is θ1, and the decay coefficient is T1; when the dimension of the real-time data is the recharge value, the weight coefficient is θ2, and the decay coefficient is T2, the coefficients of the two are different from each other, and the weight coefficient and the decay coefficient are adjusted and set in advance according to the experiments of software R&D personnel and operation strategies.

[0033] Of course, the adjustment value can be obtained in other ways, and the adjustment parameter can be calculated in other ways, which are not limited to the description in the embodiment.

[0034] In the embodiment, the second unlocking price is equal to the adjustment value multiplied by the first unlocking price, that is:

[0035] Second unlocking price = adjustment value * first unlocking price

[0036] Of course, the second unlocking price needs to be lower than the first unlocking price, so as to reduce the difficulty of unlocking chapters and improve the user experience.

[0037] On this basis, further, in order to avoid that the unlocking price is too low, each book is preset with a lower limit price, for example, the lower limit price is set as the estimated book cost price. When the second unlocking price is lower than the lower limit price, the lower limit price is pushed to the user as the second unlocking price.

[0038] In an embodiment of the application, the real-time data includes the number of registration days, the first recharge amount, the total recharge amount, the maximum recharge amount, the minimum recharge amount, the average recharge amount, the number of recharges, the amount of the most frequent recharges, the number of books read, the total number of chapters read, the maximum reading depth of a single book, the number of unlocked chapters, and the total consumption amount.

[0039] In the embodiment, the user's recharge rate can also be calculated by the number of registration days and the total recharge amount, and the consumption rate can be calculated by the number of registration days and the total consumption amount, and then the adjustment parameters of the corresponding dimensions of the recharge rate and the consumption rate are calculated.

[0040] Further, the real-time data also includes the advertising value of the user, and the advertising value of the user includes the thousand times of the user's advertising display income. In an embodiment of the application, the advertising value of the user can also be compared with the actual unlocking fee, and the number of advertisements of some users can be appropriately increased, so as to recover the fees lost due to the reduction of the unlocking conditions.

[0041] It should be noted that the effective cost per mille (ECPM) refers to the advertising revenue obtained per thousand displays, and the effective cost per mille is a parameter used to reflect profitability, which does not represent the actual income.

[0042] Of course, real-time data can also include other dimensions, which are not described here and are not limited to the description in this embodiment.

[0043] On the basis of the present embodiment, the first unlocking price is determined by the level and the number of words / chapters of the book; wherein the book is set in cultivation pools with different levels, each cultivation pool corresponds to a cultivation traffic package and the unit price of the number of words / chapters of the book; the level evaluation process of the book includes:

[0044] For the target book in the target cultivation pool, when the target book meets the promotion cultivation condition, the target cultivation traffic package corresponding to the target cultivation pool is allocated to the target book;

[0045] Based on the target cultivation traffic package, the target book is recommended for cultivation;

[0046] After the completion of the present round of cultivation recommendation, the reference cultivation level corresponding to the target book is determined based on the cultivation evaluation parameters of the target book in the present round of cultivation recommendation process;

[0047] When the level of the target cultivation pool is different from the reference cultivation level, the target book is moved to the cultivation pool corresponding to the reference cultivation level;

[0048] When the level of the target cultivation pool is the same as the reference cultivation level, it is determined whether the target book meets the promotion cultivation condition.

[0049] In the present embodiment, the cultivation promotion system includes four cultivation pools, which are C-level cultivation pool, B-level cultivation pool, A-level cultivation pool and S-level cultivation pool in order from low to high according to the level. The cultivation pool can be realized by using data table, list, array and the like storage form. The cultivation traffic package refers to the exposure amount allocated to the book, and the cultivation traffic package corresponding to the cultivation pool with different levels is different, and the exposure amount of the cultivation traffic package corresponding to the cultivation pool with higher level is larger. For example: the cultivation traffic package corresponding to the C-level cultivation pool is: seven-day display, 400 exposure amount per day; the cultivation traffic package corresponding to the B-level cultivation pool is: seven-day display, 1200 exposure amount per day; the cultivation traffic package corresponding to the A-level cultivation pool is: seven-day display, 3600 exposure amount per day; the cultivation traffic package corresponding to the S-level cultivation pool is: seven-day display, 4000 exposure amount per day.

[0050] The scheme can dynamically determine the cultivation pool matched with the target book based on the exposure amount of the traffic package allocated to the book, and can improve the accuracy of the traffic allocated to the book. The book can be preferentially transferred to the promotion cultivation pool for cultivation in the case that the target book meets the promotion cultivation condition, and thus the accuracy of the traffic allocated to the book can be improved.
