Solution Overview

Problem

The current process of sending electronic red envelopes is cumbersome, requiring users to manually set information and open a dedicated page each time, which affects efficiency.

Innovation Solution

An electronic red envelope sending method that displays a message page with a re-sending control, allowing users to obtain and transmit red envelope setting information with minimal input, simplifying the process by reusing existing message settings.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If users manually set red envelope information and open a dedicated page each time, then the red envelope sending process is complete and accurate, but the operation becomes cumbersome and efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvered envelope sending efficiencyVSAvoidoperation simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-loads red envelope setting information from previously sent red envelopes, so that when a user wants to send a red envelope, the information is already prepared and only minor adjustments are needed, eliminating the need to manually fill in all fields again

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system copies red envelope setting information from historical data and presents it as a template for the new red envelope, allowing users to reuse proven settings rather than creating new ones from scratch each time

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Loss of time

If a dedicated page for setting red envelope information is opened, then complete information can be entered, but the process becomes time-consuming and affects sending efficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetime for setting red envelope informationVSAvoidinterface complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential red envelope setting information from the full dedicated page and presents it in a condensed format within the message page, allowing users to complete the sending process without navigating to a separate page

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system merges the red envelope setting functionality directly into the message page by displaying the re-sending control and pre-filled information in the same interface where messages are viewed, eliminating the need to switch between pages

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

An electronic red envelope sending method includes displaying a message page of a client that includes a red envelope message and a red envelope re-sending control corresponding to the red envelope message, obtaining red envelope setting information corresponding to the red envelope message in response to a triggering operation performed on the red envelope re-sending control, and transmitting a red envelope re-sending message through the client based on the red envelope setting information.
