Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of auction technology, specifically to a system for simultaneous online and offline auctions based on an auction platform. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of internet technology, the auction industry has also ushered in a new era of change. In recent years, the online auction market has expanded year by year. According to relevant data, the proportion of online auction transactions in the entire auction industry increased from 15% in 2018 to 35% in 2023. However, while online auctions have achieved some development due to their convenience, they have failed to satisfy users who yearn to experience the atmosphere and view the details of the auction items in person. Meanwhile, traditional offline auctions, while providing a sense of presence, exclude many potential buyers who cannot attend due to geographical or time constraints. For example, in some high-end art auctions, many collectors miss the opportunity to participate because they cannot attend in person, which to some extent limits the further development of the auction industry.

[0003] In summary, the auction industry currently faces the following specific problems:

[0004] (a) Problems with online auctions:

[0005] Weak user engagement: Online users can only operate through the internet and cannot experience the atmosphere of a live auction, lacking a genuine sense of participation. For example, in an online jewelry auction, users can only learn about the jewelry through pictures and text descriptions, unable to personally wear it, feel its texture and luster, making it difficult to generate a strong desire to buy, resulting in low participation.

[0006] Lack of information transparency: In online auctions, users have limited access to information about the details of the items being auctioned and the situation of other bidders, easily leading to information asymmetry. For example, in an online art auction, several buyers, only able to see images of the items and unable to examine the details up close, questioned the authenticity of the pieces, ultimately causing the antique to fail to sell. This lack of transparency reduces user trust and impacts the auction's success rate.

[0007] (II) Problems with Offline Auctions

[0008] Geographical limitations are significant: offline auctions can only be held in fixed locations, excluding many potential buyers who are unable to attend due to distance. For example, if a valuable painting or calligraphy work is auctioned in a first-tier city, many potential buyers from second- and third-tier cities will be unable to attend due to the distance, causing the final price of the work to be far lower than expected. Geographical limitations narrow the pool of potential buyers, affecting the final price and efficiency of the auction.

[0009] Delayed information dissemination: In traditional offline auctions, information can only be disseminated on-site, making it difficult for off-site attendees to stay informed about the auction's progress. Potential buyers who are following the auction may miss out on participation opportunities due to this information lag.

[0010] Based on the above, a system for simultaneous online and offline auctions based on an auction platform is invented. Summary of the Invention

[0011] To address the aforementioned technical problems, according to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0030] The multi-terminal display module is used to automatically and synchronously display auction item information online, and users can search by auction item number or category; at the same time, a unique QR code is set next to the auction item at the offline site, so that users can scan the code to view the corresponding electronic information, including text, images, panoramic display and qualification documents.

[0031] The information update module is used to resubmit the auction item information for review when it needs to be modified. Once the review is approved, the original information will be overwritten and updated synchronously to all display terminals.

[0032] The information removal module is used to automatically or manually remove auction item information from the display area and transfer it to the historical database for archiving, based on whether the item was sold or failed to sell, after the auction ends.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment of the online and offline synchronized auction system based on an auction platform described in this invention, the transaction settlement management module includes:

[0034] The transaction confirmation module is used to automatically generate an electronic transaction confirmation document after the auctioneer confirms the transaction through the auctioneer control center module, and push it to the terminals of both the buyer and seller simultaneously.

[0035] The payment processing module integrates online payment channels to ensure that buyers complete payments within a specified period. Online payments are synchronized to the system in real time, while offline payments are recorded by a clerk who enters payment information. The system automatically verifies the consistency between the payment amount and the transaction price and updates the payment status after confirming receipt of payment.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment of the online and offline synchronized auction system based on an auction platform described in this invention, the transaction settlement management module further includes:

[0037] The logistics integration and pickup registration module connects with partner logistics platforms for buyers who choose logistics delivery. This allows buyers to fill in their delivery address on the terminal, generate a logistics order, and synchronize it to the logistics system, providing a tracking number for both buyers and sellers to track the delivery progress in real time. For offline buyers who choose on-site pickup, the system registers the pickup person's identity information. After verification, on-site staff confirm the shipment, and the system records the pickup time and the person in charge.

[0038] The delivery progress tracking module is used to update the status of each stage of delivery in real time, so that buyers, sellers and platform administrators can check at any time; if payment is not made within the payment period or delivery is not completed within the agreed time, an automatic reminder notification will be sent.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment of the online and offline synchronized auction system based on an auction platform described in this invention, the transaction settlement management module further includes:

[0040] The delivery completion and archiving module is used to enable buyers to confirm delivery completion on their terminals after they have confirmed receipt of the auctioned items and have no objections.

[0042] Compared with existing technologies:

[0043] (a) Advantages of online auctions

[0044] Enhancing user engagement: The live streaming technology module allows online users to watch real-time video streams and see the bidding from other bidders, creating a sense of being present and addressing the issue of weak online user engagement. For example, during online jewelry auctions, users can visually experience the texture and luster of the jewelry through the live stream, increasing their desire to purchase.

[0045] Enhancing information transparency: The unified auction status display module showcases key information about the auction items in real time, while live streaming technology allows online users to understand the on-site situation, solving the problem of opaque information in online auctions. For example, in art auctions, online users can clearly understand the details of the auction items and the situation of other bidders through live streaming and status displays, reducing information asymmetry and increasing trust and sales rates.

[0046] (II) Advantages of offline auctions

[0047] Breaking geographical limitations: The multi-terminal access module allows online users to participate in auctions, expanding the potential buyer base and solving the problem of significant geographical limitations in offline auctions. For example, in the auction of valuable calligraphy and paintings, users in second- and third-tier cities can participate online, avoiding missing out due to distance and improving transaction prices and efficiency.

[0048] Ensuring timely information dissemination: Cross-platform notification services send instant notifications to all participants when new bids are placed, solving the problem of delayed information dissemination in offline auctions. Potential buyers following the auction can learn about the dynamics immediately, avoiding missing participation opportunities due to information delays. Attached Figure Description

[0050] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the auction item information management module framework of the present invention;

[0051] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the transaction settlement management module framework of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0052] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0053] This invention provides a system for simultaneous online and offline auctions based on an auction platform. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-Figure 3 ,include:

[0054] The multi-terminal access module supports online users to register, apply, pay, and bid through various methods such as mobile devices (Apps, mini-programs) and PCs. To ensure data consistency and smooth interaction across terminals, distributed data storage and synchronization technology is employed. For example, when a user bids on a mobile device, the PC can display the bid information in real time, avoiding information asynchrony issues caused by terminal differences. This module solves the problems of single terminal and information asynchrony in traditional online auctions, while also providing more ways for offline users to participate in online interactions.

[0055] The auction item information management module is used to systematically manage auction item information, including detailed text descriptions, high-definition images, 360° panoramic displays, and the uploading and display of relevant qualification and certification documents (such as appraisal certificates, property ownership certificates, etc.). It also supports online users to view the information anytime through various terminals, and offline users can obtain the corresponding electronic information of the auction item by scanning the code on-site. In addition, the auction item information will be reviewed to ensure the authenticity and accuracy of the information.

[0056] By setting up an auction item information management module, the problems of insufficient understanding of auction item details by online users and inconvenience for offline users to obtain information are solved. It provides users with comprehensive and accurate auction item information, enhances users' awareness and trust in the auction items, and reduces hesitation or abandonment of bidding due to unclear information.

[0057] The offline bidding entry module provides a PC-based backend management system for on-site recorders to input bid information from offline bidders in real time. It automatically verifies the validity of bids, such as whether they are higher than the current highest price or within the specified time. Once verified, the bid is included in the unified bidding queue. For example, when an offline bidder raises their paddle to place a bid, the recorder enters the price in the backend, and the system immediately verifies it. If it meets the rules, the bidding process begins. This module ensures that offline bids are included in the auction system in a timely and accurate manner, solving the problem of offline auction information not being able to enter the online system in real time.

[0058] The auctioneer control center module allows auctioneers to control the entire auction process via the platform's PC, including starting, pausing, modifying the starting price, confirming a sale or no sale. This enables auctioneers to intervene promptly in case of emergencies, improving emergency response speed. For example, if a technical malfunction occurs during the auction, the auctioneer can pause the auction and resume it once the problem is resolved. This module enhances human intervention capabilities, ensuring the smooth operation of the auction.

[0059] The bid synchronization and consistency control module utilizes technologies such as distributed message queues, timestamp comparison, and bid sorting algorithms to ensure that all bids (regardless of whether they come from online or offline) are sorted and judged in the system according to the bid time order, avoiding bid conflicts. Distributed message queues enable asynchronous transmission and processing of bid information, improving the system's concurrent processing capabilities. Timestamp comparison can accurately record the time of each bid, ensuring the accuracy of sorting. The bid sorting algorithm can quickly sort a large amount of bid information. For example, when online users and offline users bid at the same time, the system determines the order of bids by comparing timestamps with millisecond precision, ensuring the fairness of the bidding process.

[0060] The live streaming technology support module integrates live streaming functionality. Through high-definition cameras and streaming media transmission technology, it allows online users to watch real-time video streams of the auction. This enables online users to not only view the current price but also see the bidding activities of other bidders, enhancing the realism and transparency of the auction process. This module solves the problems of online users lacking a sense of on-site participation and information opacity, allowing them to participate in the auction as if they were there in person.

[0061] The cross-platform notification service module automatically sends instant notifications to all participants via SMS, app push notifications, and mini-program notifications when new bids are placed. For example, when a new high price is reached for an item, all users who are following that item will receive a notification, ensuring that every user is informed of the latest developments immediately and avoids missing any important information. This module solves the problem of untimely information dissemination in traditional auctions and improves user participation.

[0062] The unified auction status display module is used to show all participants (including online users and offline viewers) key information in real time, such as the current highest bid, remaining time, and number of bidders. Online users can view this information through the app, mini-program, or PC, while offline users can view it through a large screen at the auction site. For example, the large screen at the auction site and the online platform will simultaneously display information such as the current highest bid for a certain item being 100,000 yuan, 5 minutes remaining, and 8 bidders already placed. This module enhances the transparency and participation of the auction, allowing all users to clearly understand the progress of the auction.

[0063] The security and risk control module uses big data analysis and artificial intelligence algorithms to monitor user behavior in real time, identify abnormal bidding and malicious order-brushing behavior, and take timely restrictive measures. Its system has built-in functions such as anti-order-brushing, anti-script, and abnormal behavior recognition. For example, when the system detects that an account is bidding frequently and at abnormal prices in a short period of time, it will automatically freeze the account's bidding function and notify the administrator for verification. This module ensures that the auction process is fair and orderly and prevents malicious interference.

[0064] The transaction settlement management module is responsible for handling a series of processes after the auction is completed, including generating electronic transaction confirmations, integrating multiple payment channels for buyers to complete payments, connecting with the logistics system to provide delivery tracking services for auctioned items, and recording the settlement progress for both buyers and sellers and the platform to view; for offline buyers who need to pick up the goods in person, they can also register and confirm their information through this module.

[0065] By setting up a transaction settlement management module, the problems of cumbersome settlement process and lack of transparency in traditional auctions have been solved. This has enabled online and systematic management of the transaction process, improved settlement efficiency, reduced disputes caused by chaotic processes, and enhanced the user experience throughout the entire auction process.

[0066] The auction item information management module includes:

[0067] The information entry module allows auction platform administrators or authorized sellers to upload auction item information through the system backend, including text information such as item name, category, specifications, era, origin, and detailed description; high-resolution images (including at least front, side, and detail views from multiple angles) and 360° panoramic footage; in addition, scanned copies or electronic versions of relevant qualification certification documents must be uploaded, such as art appraisal certificates, luxury goods authenticity certificates, and real estate ownership certificates;

[0068] The system's initial review module is used to automatically verify the format of uploaded information, checking whether the image resolution meets the requirements, whether the text description contains sensitive words, and whether the file format meets the requirements (such as certificate files must be in PDF or JPG format). If it does not meet the requirements, the uploader will be prompted to make modifications.

[0069] The manual review module is used to proceed to the manual review stage after the initial review is passed. This allows professional reviewers to verify the authenticity and accuracy of the auction item information, focusing on verifying the validity of qualification certification documents (such as verifying the appraisal certificate number through official channels), the consistency between the text description and the physical item (if the auction item can be physically inspected), etc. If the review fails, the specific reasons will be provided and the item will be returned for revision; if the review passes, the process will proceed to the next step.

[0070] The information entry and association module is used to store the information of approved auction items into the system's auction item database and automatically generate a unique auction item number, while associating it with the corresponding auction session, starting price, auction time and other information.

[0071] The multi-terminal display module is used to automatically and synchronously display auction item information on online platforms (App, Mini Program, PC), and users can search by auction item number or category; at the same time, a unique QR code is set next to the auction item at the offline site, so that users can scan the code to view the corresponding electronic information, including text, images, panoramic display and qualification documents.

[0072] The information update module is used to resubmit the auction item information for review when it needs to be modified (such as adding detailed descriptions or updating qualification documents). After the review is approved, the original information will be overwritten and updated synchronously to all display terminals.

[0073] The information removal module is used to automatically or manually remove auction item information from the display area and transfer it to the historical database for archiving, based on whether the item was sold or failed to sell, after the auction ends.

[0074] The transaction settlement management module includes:

[0075] The transaction confirmation module is used to automatically generate an electronic transaction confirmation document after the auctioneer confirms the transaction through the auctioneer control center module. The document includes information such as the auction item, the transaction price, the information of the buyer and seller, the payment period, and the delivery method. It is also pushed to the terminals of the buyer and seller simultaneously (online users receive it through the App / mini-program / PC, while offline users obtain an electronic or printed version with the assistance of the on-site recorder).

[0076] The payment processing module is used to integrate online payment (such as WeChat Pay, Alipay, bank card transfer) and offline payment (such as on-site card swiping, cash) channels; so that buyers need to complete the payment within a specified period, and online payments are synchronized to the system in real time, while offline payments are recorded by the recorder and the system automatically verifies the consistency between the payment amount and the transaction price, and updates the payment status after confirming receipt of payment;

[0077] The logistics integration and pickup registration module connects with partner logistics platforms for buyers who choose logistics delivery. This allows buyers to fill in their delivery address on the terminal, generate a logistics order, and synchronize it to the logistics system, providing a tracking number for both buyers and sellers to track the delivery progress in real time. For offline buyers who choose on-site pickup, the system registers the pickup person's identity information. After verification, on-site staff confirm the shipment, and the system records the pickup time and the person in charge.

[0078] The delivery progress tracking module is used to update the status of each stage of delivery in real time (such as "paid", "shipped", "signed for", "picked up") so that both buyers and sellers and platform administrators can check at any time; if payment is not made within the payment period or delivery is not completed within the agreed time, a reminder notification will be automatically sent.

[0079] The delivery completion and archiving module is used to enable buyers to confirm delivery completion on the terminal after they have confirmed receipt of the auctioned item and have no objections. At the same time, it will mark the transaction as completed and archive relevant documents such as the transaction confirmation letter, payment voucher, and logistics records to the system database. It will also generate a transaction voucher for users to download.

[0080] The after-sales follow-up module allows buyers to submit after-sales applications when they raise quality objections or other issues after delivery. The platform administrator will then handle the application and coordinate its processing. The processing results will be synchronized to the system and notified to both parties, forming a complete after-sales record.
