Solution Overview

Problem

Current methods for sharing information, such as concert tickets, are inconvenient, leading to poor interactivity and low recommendation conversion rates, as users must manually purchase tickets again for others and lack efficient sharing mechanisms.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that generate and share a link to an information presentation page, along with user identifiers, allowing virtual goods allocation when the page is accessed, enhancing convenience and interactivity by simplifying the sharing and ticket-purchasing process.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If users share information by making phone calls or sending SMS messages, then users can communicate with friends, but the operation is inconvenient and interactivity is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconvenience of sharing operationVSAvoidcomplexity of sharing process
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses a sharing link as a digital copy of the information presentation page. Instead of manually recreating the sharing experience through phone calls or SMS, the system creates a reusable link that contains all necessary information (page URL, user identifier) and can be distributed easily through various channels, dramatically simplifying the sharing operation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a server as an intermediary between the first user and second users. The server generates the sharing link, manages the user relation chain, and handles virtual goods allocation. This intermediary automates the complex processes of tracking shares, verifying relationships, and distributing rewards, eliminating the need for manual coordination

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If users manually purchase tickets again for friends after sharing, then friends can watch the program, but the operation is inconvenient and recommendation conversion rate is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecommendation conversion rateVSAvoidtime for ticket purchase process
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-generating the sharing link with embedded page link and user identifier information before the actual purchase is needed. The system also pre-establishes the user relation chain and preset policies for virtual goods allocation, so that when a second user clicks the link, the purchase process is already prepared and can be completed automatically or with minimal input

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables self-service by allowing second users to automatically access the information presentation page and complete ticket purchase through the sharing link without requiring the first user to manually intervene. The server automatically processes the purchase based on the embedded information in the link, eliminating the need for manual ticket purchasing assistance

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Adaptability or versatility

If the system allocates virtual goods to first user when second user accesses the page, then user viscosity is improved and interactivity is enhanced, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteractivity of sharing functionVSAvoidcomplexity of virtual goods allocation system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements feedback by allocating virtual goods to the first user when the second user accesses the information presentation page through the sharing link. This creates a positive reinforcement loop where sharing leads to rewards, encouraging more sharing behavior. The server automatically detects the access event and triggers the virtual goods allocation based on preset policies, providing immediate feedback to the sharing user

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The server acts as an intermediary that manages the complexity of virtual goods allocation. It maintains the user relation chain, monitors access events through sharing links, and automatically executes virtual goods distribution according to preset policies. This intermediary handles the complex tracking and verification processes, keeping the user interface simple while enabling sophisticated reward mechanisms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

The present disclosure discloses an information processing method performed at a computer server that is communicatively connected to a plurality of mobile terminals. The computer server receives a sharing request sent by a first terminal, where the sharing request carries a page link used to be linked to an information presentation page and an identifier of a first user currently logging into. The computer server then generates, according to the page link and the first user identifier, a sharing link used to be linked to the information presentation page and sends the sharing link to a second terminal of a second user identifier in a user relation chain of the first user identifier. Next, the computer server allocates virtual goods to the first user identifier according to a preset policy when it is determined that the second mobile terminal displays the information presentation page according to the sharing link.
