In step 201, the transaction rules of the first electronic book are obtained according to the transaction request.

In one embodiment, reading apps, such as Duokan, Palm Reading, QQ Reading, etc., are installed on the terminal. You can read e-books through reading apps, and you can also rent or exchange e-books. On the transaction page of the e-book, there may be a leasing module for the user to click to perform the leasing operation, and an exchange module for the user to click to perform the exchange operation.

In an embodiment, when the first terminal receives the leasing request, it can determine the first e-book that the leasing request is for, and the transaction rules corresponding to the first e-book are stored in the first terminal, which can be further subdivided into leasing rules and exchange rules. The transaction rules can include the lease period, etc., and the lease period can be set by the user, for example, the lease period is 1 month, etc. Trading hours indicate the trading time period from the trading start time to the trading end time.

In one embodiment, when the first terminal receives the exchange request, it determines the first e-book to be exchanged by the exchange request, and searches the first terminal for an exchange rule corresponding to the first e-book, and the exchange rule indicates: the first e-book The book is exchanged with the second e-book of the second account; the exchange rule may also include the information of the second e-book, so as to determine whether the second e-book from the second account meets the requirements of the exchange rule. In the first terminal, based on the reading preferences of the first user, information such as the publisher, author, and category of the target e-book that is allowed to be exchanged with the first e-book can be set, and the exchange request received by the first terminal can carry There are information such as the publisher, author, and category of the second e-book. After the first terminal extracts this information, it compares the extracted information with the information of the set target e-book. If they are consistent or partially consistent, it means that the second e-book Books can be exchanged with first e-books.

In step 202, a reminder message for the transaction rules is output.

In an embodiment, the first terminal displays the transaction rule, so that the user of the second account can learn how to obtain the reading permission of the first e-book through leasing or exchanging.

In step 203, in response to determining that at least one of the following items meets the predetermined condition and detecting a confirmation message for the reminder message, the reading permission is released.

In one embodiment, when the second terminal receives a reminder message for the transaction rules of the first e-book, if the second terminal agrees with the rules, it will send a confirmation message to the first terminal of the first account, then the first terminal will When the confirmation message is received and at least one of the following conditions is determined to be satisfied, the reading permission is released.

Wherein, the lease rule indicates that the first e-book is rented; the exchange rule indicates that the first e-book is exchanged with the second e-book of the second account.

The predetermined conditions may include at least one of the following:

(1) The trading time period falls within the idle time period of the first e-book.

In one embodiment, the transaction time period is the set time period from the transaction start time. The time of confirming the message can be determined as the transaction start time, or the time of confirming the successful payment is determined as the transaction start time. The lease rule stipulates that A certain period of time, for example, the length of the rental period is 1 month, etc.

In one embodiment, the first terminal counts the transaction time, and when the transaction time period is exceeded, the second terminal corresponding to the second account is controlled to output an expiration reminder message to remind the user to renew the lease, renew the exchange operation, or remind Users read eBooks as quickly as possible. The reading period can also be closed, so that the second account cannot continue to read the first e-book.

(2) The number of borrowings is less than the preset number of borrowings.

In an embodiment, a counter may be set in the terminal, and every time an e-book transaction is completed, the corresponding counter is incremented by one, so as to record the borrowing times. The number of borrowing times can be set in the leasing rules, for example, 8 times, then when the number of borrowing times does not exceed the set number of borrowing times, the reading permission can be granted to the second account.

(3) The second account is a security account.

In an embodiment, the security account can be understood as a legally registered user, rather than a user such as a tourist.

In an embodiment, the transaction rule may also include the transaction amount, for example, the transaction amount is the amount of one month, the transaction amount is the amount of the day, or a gradient amount is set according to the lease term, etc. The transaction amount can be set in advance, usually the lease amount and the exchange amount are lower than the retail amount, and the transaction amount can also be adjusted by the terminal based on the statistical transaction data, which will be explained in subsequent embodiments.

In one embodiment, when the terminal corresponding to the first account detects the confirmation operation for the reminder message, for example, clicking the confirmation module for the reminder message, a payment reminder for the transaction amount is displayed on the transaction page of the e-book. When the confirmation operation on the reminder message is detected and the corresponding amount is successfully paid, it can be determined that the corresponding transaction rule is met.

In an exemplary scenario, for example, on the transaction page of the e-book "Gone with the Wind", there are modules corresponding to leasing and exchange functions. The first smart phone receives the rental request for the rental module of the e-book, determines the e-book to be rented as "Gone with the Wind" according to the rental request, and obtains the pre-stored rental rules of the e-book "Gone with the Wind", the rental rules include the rental period and the rental amount ; Then, output a reminder message for the lease rule, that is, display the lease rule, and a confirmation module for the lease rule; when detecting the confirmation operation of the reminder message by the second terminal, output a payment prompt for the lease amount; When it is detected that the corresponding rental amount has been successfully paid, the reading authority of "Gone with the Wind" is opened to the second account.

In this embodiment, the transaction rules are obtained according to the received transaction request, and the transaction rules are output and displayed for user confirmation, and when a new message confirming the transaction rules by the second account is detected, the electronic account is opened to the second account. The reading authority of the book, and the open period is the period stipulated in the transaction rules. Since the price of leasing or exchanging is lower than the retail price, it is convenient for users to enjoy the convenience brought by e-books and e-reading at a lower price, and because leasing and exchanging are time-limited, users are effectively urged to read books in time to avoid The idleness caused after purchasing a book optimizes the user experience.

Fig. 3 is a flow chart of an e-book transaction method shown according to an exemplary embodiment, and Fig. 1B is a scene diagram of an e-book transaction method shown according to an exemplary embodiment; the e-book transaction method It can be applied to a terminal, and the terminal in the present disclosure can be any intelligent terminal with an Internet access function, for example, it can be specifically a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant, personal digital assistant) and the like. Wherein, the terminal can access the router through the wireless local area network, and access the server on the public network through the router. As shown in Figure 3, the e-book transaction method includes the following steps 301-302:

In step 301, in the state of logging into the second account, a transaction request for the e-book is sent to the first account, and the transaction request includes a rental request or an exchange request.

In one embodiment, reading apps, such as Duokan, Palm Reading, QQ Reading, etc., are installed on the second terminal. You can read e-books through reading apps, and you can also read e-books in exchange. On the transaction page of the e-book, there may be an exchange module, which is used for the user of the second account to click to perform the exchange operation, and the second terminal may send an exchange request to the first terminal when detecting the exchange operation.

In step 302, the reading authority of the first e-book indicated by the transaction request is acquired.

In one embodiment, the transaction request carries the information of the e-book that is desired to be traded, that is, the first e-book in the above embodiment. In combination with the embodiment shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 2, the first terminal can determine the first e-book through the transaction request. information of an e-book, and determine the second account, so that the reading authority of the first e-book can be opened to the second terminal. The transaction request includes a rental request or an exchange request.

In an embodiment, the first terminal may collect transaction information for each e-book within a set time period. For example, the number of transactions and the frequency of transactions for the e-book. Then adjust the term or amount in the transaction rule based on the transaction information. For example, if the transaction frequency of an e-book exceeds the set frequency, it can be considered that the e-book is relatively popular, and the price can be lowered by 5%.

Through the above-mentioned embodiment, the terminal can obtain the reading authority of the e-book through leasing or exchanging. Compared with purchasing e-books, the price is lower, and because the reading period of leasing or exchanging is limited, it is beneficial to urge users to read e-books in time , not easy to cause idle or waste.

Fig. 4 is a flow chart of another e-book transaction method shown according to an exemplary embodiment; this embodiment utilizes the above-mentioned method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, and uses how to obtain the reading authority as an example to illustrate, as shown in Fig. 4, including the following steps 401-403:

In step 401, a reminder message for transaction rules sent by a terminal corresponding to the first account is received.

In an embodiment, the first terminal obtains the corresponding transaction rules based on the first electronic book indicated in the transaction request, and outputs the corresponding transaction rules to the second account of the second terminal, and displays them in the form of a reminder message.

In one embodiment, the transaction rule indicates a transaction time period from a transaction start time to a transaction end time.

When the transaction request includes a rental request, the transaction rule indicates that the first electronic book is to be rented.

When the transaction request includes an exchange request, the transaction rule indicates that the first electronic book is exchanged with the second electronic book of the second account.

In an embodiment, the transaction rule may also indicate the transaction amount. In this case, when the second account successfully pays the corresponding transaction amount, the second account obtains the reading permission of the first e-book.

In step 402, a confirmation operation for the reminder message is detected.

In an embodiment, when the second user confirms the reminder message, he may click on the confirmation module to confirm, and accordingly the second terminal detects the confirmation operation.

In step 403, in response to detecting the confirmation operation, a confirmation message for the confirmation operation is sent to the first terminal.

In an embodiment, after the second terminal sends a confirmation message to the first terminal, the first terminal grants the reading permission of the first e-book to the second account of the second terminal.

In an embodiment, the second terminal can directly obtain the reading permission of the first e-book, for example, the reading permission of the first e-book corresponding to the second account in the App is open, and the second terminal can also receive the reading permission of the first terminal. The download address of the first e-book is sent, so as to download the first e-book based on the download address.

In order to prevent the user from forgetting the transaction deadline and not finishing reading the e-book, or to remind the user to renew the lease or exchange without finishing the reading, in one embodiment, the set time before the end of the reading, or the expiration of the transaction period , the first terminal outputs expiration reminder information to the second terminal.

For example, if the transaction starts on October 10 and the lease period is one month, then the transaction ends on November 10, and you can set reminders to be sent to users on November 5 and November 8.

In an embodiment, when the transaction period expires, the reading authority of the second account for the first e-book is closed.

In an embodiment, the lease renewal or exchange renewal operation can be similar to the lease and exchange operation. The second account sends a lease renewal or exchange renewal request to the first terminal through the second terminal, and confirms the corresponding lease renewal rule or After continuing the exchange rules, obtain the reading permission of the first e-book. When it is stipulated in the continued transaction rules (continued leasing and continued exchange) that the amount of the continued transaction needs to be paid, the second account performs the payment operation, and obtains the reading authority of the first e-book after successful payment.

For example, if a second account leases and renews the lease of the first e-book for one month, the expiration date is November 10, and the second account submits a lease renewal request before November 10, then the transaction is satisfied In the case of the rules, the second terminal determines that the rental period is December 10.

Through the above embodiment, the second terminal can obtain the reading permission of the e-book only after confirming the transaction rules sent by the first terminal, so that the user can know information such as the transaction period and transaction amount, and it is convenient for the user to arrange reading time. Moreover, through the continuous transaction operation, it is also convenient for the user to continue to obtain the reading authority of the e-book, which optimizes the user experience.
