Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual input of product information is used in live shopping broadcast, then sellers can control product information, but the operation process becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the online shopping platform and live shopping broadcast platform into a unified system. Product information registered on the online shopping platform is automatically shared with the live shopping broadcast platform, eliminating the need for manual re-entry and reducing both operational complexity and time consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables automatic synchronization of product information between platforms. Once products are registered on the online shopping platform, they are automatically available on the live shopping broadcast platform without requiring manual intervention, allowing the system to serve itself.
2Ease of operation
If online shopping mall service and live shopping broadcast service are separate, then each service can operate independently, but purchasers face inconvenience in buying products
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the online shopping mall service and live shopping broadcast service into a unified system. This integration allows purchasers to buy products directly during the live broadcast without needing to switch to a separate online shopping site, simplifying the purchasing process while the backend systems remain modular for independent operation.
3Loss of information
If product information is not synchronized between platforms, then platform independence is maintained, but information consistency is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The system establishes a feedback mechanism where product information registered on the online shopping platform is automatically synchronized to the live shopping broadcast platform. This ensures information consistency across both platforms while maintaining a manageable level of integration through automated data exchange protocols.

AI summary
A method for controlling a live content broadcast includes receiving, on a first online platform, information on a first set of products registered as products for sale of a user account associated with the user terminal, and receiving from a user, as a first user input, a selection of a second set of products to sell in the live content broadcast on a second online platform among the first set of products.
