Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of an implementation environment provided by an embodiment of the invention is shown. The implementation 30 environment includes: a sending terminal 120, a backend server 140 and a receiving terminal 160.

The transmitting terminal 120 has a transmitting client running therein. The sending terminal 120 may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, an e-book reader, an MP3(Moving Picture Experts Group Audio Layer III, mpeg compression standard Audio Layer 3) player, an MP4(Moving Picture Experts Group Audio Layer IV, mpeg compression standard Audio Layer 4) player, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, and the like.

The background server 140 may be one server, a server cluster composed of several servers, or a cloud computing service center.

The receiving terminal 160 has a receiving client running therein. The receiving terminal 160 may also be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, an e-book reader, an MP3(Moving Picture Experts Group Audio Layer III, mpeg Audio Layer 3) player, an MP4(Moving Picture Experts Group Audio Layer IV, mpeg Audio Layer 4) player, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, or the like.

Background server 140 may establish a communication connection with sending terminal 120 and receiving terminal 160, respectively, over a network. The network may be a wireless network or a wired network.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the sender client and the receiver client may be any clients having a virtual article transceiving function. For example, the sender client may be a social-type application client, an instant messaging client, a payment-type application client, a game client, a reading client, a client dedicated to sending virtual items, and so on.

In practical applications, the sender client and the receiver client may be two clients with different functions, where the sender client has a function of sending a virtual article, and the receiver client has a function of receiving the virtual article. Alternatively, the sender client and the receiver client may be two clients having the same function, and the clients have a function of sending and receiving the virtual item. When the client is used for realizing the function of the client side of the sender in the method example of the invention, the client is used as the client of the sender; when the client is used to implement the function of the client side of the receiving party in the method example of the present invention, the client is the client of the receiving party. Correspondingly, the sending terminal and the receiving terminal are both terminal devices. When the client running in the terminal device is used for realizing the function of the client side of the sender in the method example of the invention, the terminal device is used as the sender terminal; when the client operating in the terminal device is used to implement the function of the client side of the receiving party in the method example of the present invention, the terminal device is used as the receiving terminal. In practical application, the same client can be used as a sender client and a receiver client. The same terminal may be used as a transmitting terminal or a receiving terminal.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the virtual article may also be referred to as a virtual red envelope or an electronic red envelope, and the virtual article is a virtual carrier for transferring resources (or referred to as a virtual article) between at least two users in a gift form. The at least two users have a friend relationship, or may not have a friend relationship, in the client and/or the real world. The resources involved in the virtual item (or referred to as virtual items) may be currency, gaming equipment, gaming materials, gaming pets, gaming chips, icons, members, titles, value-added services, points, gold bulls, gold beans, gift certificates, redemption certificates, coupons, greeting cards, and the like. The embodiment of the invention does not limit the resource types.

In one example, as shown in fig. 2, when the backend server 140 is a cluster architecture, the backend server 140 may include: communication server 142, package server 144, video server 146, and payment server 148.

The communication server 142 is used to provide communication services between the sender client and the receiver client.

For example, the communication server 142 is used for providing a function of transmitting and receiving messages such as text, pictures, videos, and videos between the sender client and the receiver client.

The package server 144 is used to provide virtual item transceiving functions.

And a video server 146 for providing functions of storing and processing video information.

The payment server 148 is used to provide resource transfer functionality. For example, the payment server 148 is used to provide functions of transferring resources from an account corresponding to the sender client to an account corresponding to the backend server 140, and transferring resources from an account corresponding to the backend server 140 to an account corresponding to the receiver client.

The servers can establish communication connection through a network. The network may be a wireless network or a wired network.

Referring to fig. 3, a flowchart of a virtual article sending method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The method may be applied to the implementation environment shown in fig. 1. The method may include the following steps.

Step 301, after acquiring a virtual article generation instruction, a sender client displays a virtual article sending page.

Step 302, the client of the sending party obtains the video information and the parameters of the virtual goods input in the page for sending the virtual goods.

And step 303, the client of the sender correspondingly sends the video information, the virtual article parameters and the information of the receiver to the background server.

Correspondingly, the background server receives the video information, the virtual article parameters and the receiver information which are correspondingly sent by the sender client.

Step 304, the background server generates a virtual item identifier.

Step 305, the background server stores the corresponding relationship between the virtual article identifier, the video information and the virtual article parameter.

And step 306, the background server sends the virtual article message to at least one receiver client according to the receiver information. The virtual article message carries a virtual article identifier.

Accordingly, the receiving client receives the virtual article message sent by the background server.

Step 307, the receiving party client displays the virtual item message, and the virtual item message and/or the virtual item pickup page triggered and displayed based on the virtual item message includes a play control.

And 308, after the receiving-side client acquires the trigger signal corresponding to the playing control, playing the video information acquired according to the virtual article identifier.

In summary, in the method provided in this embodiment, when sending the virtual article, the sender user may record the video information as the associated information of the virtual article and send the associated information to the receiver, and the receiver may play the video information after receiving the virtual article; compared with blessing words in a text form, the video information can transmit more information, for example, a receiving party user can intuitively and clearly know the psychological state of a sending party user according to the characteristics of the video, the tone and the like of the sending party user, and the amount of information transmitted when a virtual article is sent is enriched.

In addition, the sender user does not need to manually edit blessing words, and expresses moods, consolation or award prizes and other moods when sending the virtual articles by recording the video information, so that the operation is fully simplified, and the operation efficiency is improved.

In addition, for a special group of recipients, such as deaf-mutes, recording video information to express blessings, comfort or quarts will undoubtedly bring user experience which is quite different from the traditional red packet. Even information transfer contents which cannot be realized by the conventional information transfer method can be realized by the information transfer method. For other people, such as the elderly or children who cannot use or normally use the traditional information expression, the video input mode is substantially different from the traditional mode.

In addition, in order to solve the problems that the operation of inputting the blessing words is cumbersome and inefficient because the user is required to manually edit the blessing words, it is a conventional practice to use default set blessing words. If the user does not manually input blessing words when sending the virtual articles, the sender client uses the default blessing words carried in the virtual articles to send to the corresponding receiver client. However, the default set blessing words sometimes do not accurately express the mood of the user. For example, the default set blessing words are "May you get good, good luck and great profit", which can express blessing only, but cannot express a mood such as comfort or a bonus. By the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the operation can be simplified, and meanwhile, the sender user can accurately express the mood when sending the virtual article.

Referring to fig. 4A, a flowchart of a virtual article sending method according to another embodiment of the present invention is shown. The method may be applied to the implementation environment shown in fig. 1. The method may include the following steps.

In step 401, after acquiring the virtual article generation instruction, the client of the sending party displays a virtual article sending page.

The virtual article generation instruction is an operation signal for requesting generation of a virtual article, which is triggered by the sender user. The client of the sending party is provided with an operation control for sending the virtual article, and the virtual article generation indication is triggered when the user clicks the operation control. In one example, a sender client displays a session interface, which can be a single chat session interface or a chat group session interface; after a trigger signal corresponding to a menu control in a session interface is acquired, displaying a function menu, wherein the function menu comprises an operation control for sending a virtual article; and after the trigger signal corresponding to the operation control is acquired, displaying a virtual article sending page.

Optionally, if the client of the sending party provides the function of sending the virtual article carrying the video information to the user and also provides the function of sending the virtual article carrying the text information to the user, the client of the sending party displays the option of the type of the virtual article after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the operation control for sending the virtual article; and after the trigger signal corresponding to the selection item of the virtual article carrying the video information is acquired, displaying a virtual article sending page for sending the virtual article carrying the video information. In one example, the selection items of the virtual item types include a selection item corresponding to a virtual item carrying text information and a selection item corresponding to a virtual item carrying video information.

The virtual article sending page comprises: the system comprises an operation control for the sender user to input parameters of the virtual article, an operation control for the sender user to record video information and an operation control for the sender user to trigger sending of the virtual article. Referring collectively to fig. 4B, there is illustrated a schematic diagram of the interface involved in a virtual item delivery process, assuming that currency is donated using a "red envelope" as the carrier. A sender user clicks a menu control 42 in a single chat session interface 41 to trigger and display a function menu 43, wherein the function menu 43 comprises an operation control 44 for sending a virtual article; the sender user clicks the operation control 44 to trigger the display of options of virtual article types, including a video red packet option 45 and a text red packet option 46; clicking on the video red packet selection item 45 by the sender user triggers displaying of a virtual article sending interface 47 for sending the video red packet, wherein the virtual article sending interface 47 comprises an input box 48 for inputting the amount of money to be given by the sender user, a recording control 49 for recording video information by the sender user, and an operation control 50 for triggering sending of the virtual article by the sender user.

Step 402, the client of the sending party obtains the video information and the virtual article parameters input in the virtual article sending page.

And after acquiring a trigger signal corresponding to a video recording control in a virtual article sending page, the client of the sending party acquires video information through a microphone. Referring to fig. 4B, when the user presses the recording control 49 to trigger the recording of the video information, the sending user starts a session and acts to record the video information that he wishes to express after viewing the displayed recording prompt box 51. Optionally, in the process of recording the video information, the sender client cancels the recording of the video information if acquiring the recording cancellation instruction. For example, the user performs a slide-up operation during recording of video information to trigger cancellation of the recording instruction.

The virtual article parameters include several possible implementations as follows: when sending virtual items to a single recipient client, the virtual item parameters include the number of virtual items in the virtual item; when sending virtual items to at least one recipient client belonging to the same group, the virtual item parameters include the number of virtual items and the total number of virtual items, the total number of virtual items is used for randomly generating the number of virtual items in each virtual item, or the virtual item parameters include the number of virtual items and the fixed number of virtual items in each virtual item.

In step 403, the client of the sending party displays a preview control in the virtual item sending page.

After the client of the sending party obtains the video information, a preview control is displayed in the virtual article sending page. The preview control is used for the sender user to preview and play the video information recorded by the sender user. Optionally, after the client of the sending party obtains the video information, the recording control in the virtual article sending interface is switched to the preview control.

In step 404, after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the preview control, the sender client plays the video information.

The user at the sending party can listen to the video information recorded by the user by triggering the preview control so as to achieve the purpose of checking the video information. The video information may be re-recorded when the sender user deems the video information it recorded to be undesirable. Optionally, the virtual article sending interface further includes a re-recording control. And the client of the sending party acquires the video information again after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the re-recording control piece.

With combined reference to fig. 4B and 4C, after acquiring the video information, the sender client switches the recording control 49 in the virtual article sending interface 47 to the preview control 52. The sender user clicking on the preview control 52 triggers the playing of the video information. In the process of playing the video information, the client of the sending party can display the playing progress of the video information. For example, as shown in fig. 4C, the sender client displays the progress of the video information on the outer border of the preview control 52.

In step 405, the sender client generates a video file containing video information.

After the client of the sending party acquires the video information, a video file containing the video information is generated.

At step 406, the sender client processes the video file. Referring to FIG. 4F, in step 406, processing the video file utilizes a compression algorithm to compress the video file, including the sub-steps of:

step 4061, the sender client obtains at least one frame of the video data and the video parameters of the video data.

The client of the sending party can decode through the existing video file to obtain at least one frame of video data and video parameters of the video data; the client of the sending party can also obtain at least one frame of video data and video parameters of the video data collected by a camera of the mobile terminal.

When at least one frame of video data is obtained by decoding the existing video file, the client of the sending party can also decode the existing video file by the aid of the hardware acceleration function of the client of the sending party to obtain at least one frame of video data and video parameters of the video data.

Taking the electronic device which runs the iOS system and is provided with the mobile terminal carrying the sender client as a product of the american apple company as an example, the mobile terminal decodes the existing video file by adopting a multimedia decoding component in the iOS system, and the multimedia decoding component can start a hardware acceleration function in the electronic device running the iOS system, thereby greatly improving the decoding efficiency.

The video parameters of the video data refer to resolution and code rate. In the iOS system, video parameters of video data are carried in a SampleBuffer structure, and 1 SampleBuffer structure is shared by multiple frames of video data. For example, the 1 st SampleBuffer structure is shared by the 1 st to 100 th frames of video data, and the respective resolutions and bit rates (which are usually the same) of the 1 st to 100 th frames of video data are recorded in the 1 st SampleBuffer structure; the 101-th-through-200 frames share the 2 nd SampleBuffer structure, the 2 nd SampleBuffer structure records the respective resolutions and code rates (usually, the same) of the video data of the 101-th-through-200 frames, and so on.

Step 4062, the sender client modifies the video parameters of the video data into compressed video parameters.

And the mobile terminal modifies the video parameters of the video data into compressed video parameters. The video parameters include resolution and code rate, and video compression can be realized only by modifying one of the parameters into a compressed video parameter, but both of the parameters are generally modified into the compressed video parameter at the same time. Namely: the mobile terminal modifies the resolution of the video data into the resolution after compression; and/or the mobile terminal modifies the code rate of the video data into the compressed code rate. When the original code rate is modified into the compressed code rate, the compression effect of the video data is very obvious. Taking an electronic device running an iOS system as an example, the mobile terminal modifies the original resolution in the SampleBuffer structure to 480 × 480, and modifies the original bitrate (usually 1500kbps) in the SampleBuffer structure to 500 kbps.

Step 4063, the sender client compresses the at least one frame of video data according to the compressed video parameters through a hardware acceleration function, so as to obtain a compressed video file.

The step 4063 decodes the existing video file through a hardware acceleration function of the mobile terminal to obtain the at least one frame of video data. And in the process of compressing the video data, the mobile terminal compresses at least one frame of video data through a hardware acceleration function according to the resolution and/or code rate after compression. Taking an electronic device running with an iOS system as an example, the mobile terminal compresses at least one frame of video data in an h.264 coding format according to the compressed resolution and/or code rate through a multimedia coding component avasetwriter in the iOS system. The multimedia coding component AVAssetWriter can start a hardware acceleration function in the electronic equipment running with the iOS system, and greatly improves the coding efficiency.

As described above, the video compression process of steps 4061 to 4063 further includes:

step 40611, decoding the existing video file to obtain the at least one frame of video data;

and 40612, acquiring the at least one frame of video data acquired by the camera of the mobile terminal.

Said step 4062, including modifying a resolution of said video data to a compressed resolution; and/or modifying the code rate of the video data into the compressed code rate.

Step 4063 includes the following substeps:

step 40631, for each frame of video data, compressing the video data according to the compressed video parameters through a hardware acceleration function of the mobile terminal;

step 40632 is to write each frame of compressed video data into a video file at a predetermined writing frame rate, so as to obtain the compressed video file.

In step 40632, the mobile terminal writes the compressed current frame video data into a video file, and then performs step 40631 on the next frame video data, so as to implement sequential compression and writing on all the frame video data. When video data compressed by one frame is written into a video file, the mobile terminal controls the writing frame rate to be a predetermined writing frame rate after compression, for example, the mobile terminal controls the predetermined writing frame rate to be 24 frames per second, that is, the lowest frame rate that human eyes can receive, thereby achieving a better compression effect. Experiments prove that the data volume of the compressed short videos with the lengths of 8 seconds is only about 500K through the compression processing, and the compression effect is very good.

Modifying the video parameters of the video data into compressed video parameters by acquiring at least one frame of video data and the video parameters of the video data by using the video compression technology described in the steps 40611 to 40613, and compressing the at least one frame of video data according to the compressed video parameters by using a hardware acceleration function of the mobile terminal to obtain a compressed video file; the problem that the processing speed of the existing video compression method is low is solved; the effects of performing video compression through the hardware acceleration function of the mobile terminal and improving the processing speed of the video compression method on the mobile terminal are achieved. The video compression processing technology is very advantageous to be used in the virtual article sending process of this embodiment, performing compression operation at the mobile terminal can greatly reduce the data traffic transmitted from the terminal to the video server and from the video server to the receiving terminal, which can save communication traffic on one hand, and on the other hand, the video compression technology at the mobile terminal can also reduce the pressure on communication bandwidth caused by the peak period of sending a large number of virtual articles.

In the virtual article sending process, the obtained video file is compressed on the sending side because the video file has a large format, which also causes the virtual article sending process to be different from other forms of virtual article sending modes such as text, audio and the like.

Of course, the compression technique in this embodiment is merely an exemplary description, and other video compression techniques may be adopted at the client side in order to implement transmission of the transmission-side video to the video server.

In some cases, for example, when the network condition of the user is good, the user may select to directly upload the uncompressed lossless video to the video server, perform compression on the server side, and store the uncompressed lossless video and the compressed small format video file on the server side, and the receiving side may select to receive the lossless video or the compressed small format video file. In one example, the recipient first receives a compressed small format video; and then, for example, when the network condition is good or the user demands a clearer video, a request for acquiring the lossless video is provided for the video server, and the server issues the lossless video file according to the request. The virtual article sending mode takes the server as a medium, so that hardware resources of a user can be saved, various choices of the user are provided, and particularly, the user can conveniently obtain video files according to requirements under different network conditions.

Step 407, the client of the sending party correspondingly sends the video file, the virtual package parameter and the information of the receiving party to the background server. Correspondingly, the background server receives the video file sent by the client side of the sender.

The virtual item generation request is used for instructing the background server to generate the virtual item. The virtual article generation request comprises file identification of the video file, virtual article parameters and receiver information. The file identification is generated by the sending client or the background server. The file identification is used to uniquely identify the video file. For example, the file identifier may be a file name of the video file, or may be a unique serial number assigned to the video file by the sender client or the background server. The recipient information is used to indicate a recipient user of the virtual item.

Illustratively, the recipient information may be an identification of the recipient client, or a group identification of a group to which the recipient client belongs, or a condition of the recipient client set by the sender user, for example, the condition may be the recipient client corresponding to the recipient user between 20 and 30 years old in Guangzhou city.

In one example, a sending control is included in the virtual article sending page, and the sending control is triggered by the sending user to trigger the virtual article sending instruction. After acquiring the virtual article sending instruction, the sending party client triggers and executes a sending process described below, and sends a virtual article message to at least one receiving party client. And the virtual article message generated based on the virtual article parameters carries video information.

Optionally, if the client of the sending party receives the processed video file from the background server, the virtual article generation request includes a file identifier of the processed video file, a virtual article parameter, and information of the receiving party. The file identifier of the processed video file may be the same as the file identifier of the unprocessed video file, or may be a file identifier newly generated by the background server for the processed video file. And if the file identifier is newly generated for the processed video file by the background server, the background server sends the processed video file and the file identifier I of the processed video file to the sender client side.

With reference to fig. 4B and 4D, the sender user clicks the operation control 50 to trigger the payment process, the sender client interacts with the background server to complete the payment process, the sender client transfers the amount of money to be donated from the account corresponding to the sender client to the account corresponding to the background server, and after the transfer is successful, the virtual article is successfully sent out. A single chat session interface 41 displayed by the sender client displays a sent virtual good message 53.

Step 408, the server generates a virtual item identification.

The background server generates virtual article identification corresponding to the virtual article parameter.

It should be noted that, for one or more virtual articles that need to be generated by the same virtual article generation request, the background server generates a virtual article identifier, and the virtual article identifier is stored in correspondence with the virtual article parameter included in the request.

Step 409, the background server stores the corresponding relationship between the virtual article identifier, the video information and the virtual article parameter.

And the background server stores the processed video file. The file identifier of the processed video file can be a file identifier of a video file received by the background server from the client of the sender; or a file identifier generated by the background server for the processed video file.

Step 410, the background server sends a virtual article message to at least one receiver client according to the receiver information, wherein the virtual article message carries a virtual article identifier.

And if the virtual item is triggered to be sent in the single chat session interface, the receiver user of the virtual item is the contact person in the single chat session interface. The virtual article generation request sent by the client of the sending party to the background server can carry the user account of the contact person in the single chat session interface. And the background server sends the virtual article message to a receiver client corresponding to the user account of the contact.

And if the virtual article is triggered to be sent in the group chat session interface, the receiver user of the virtual article is the contact in the group corresponding to the group chat session interface. The virtual article generation request sent by the sender client to the background server can carry the group identifier of the group corresponding to the group chat session interface.

And the background server acquires the user accounts of all the contacts belonging to the group according to the group identification, and then sends the virtual article message to the receiver client corresponding to the acquired user accounts of all the contacts.

Optionally, the virtual article message further carries an identifier of the sender client, so that the receiver user can know the sender user of the virtual article according to the identifier of the sender client.

In step 411, the recipient client displays the virtual item message.

The receiver client displays the virtual item message in a session interface with the sender client. In one example, a play control is included in the virtual item message displayed by the recipient client. In another example, a play control is included in a virtual item pickup page that triggers display based on a virtual item message displayed by the recipient client. In yet another example, the virtual item message displayed by the recipient client and the virtual item pickup page triggered to be displayed based on the virtual item message each include a play control. The playing control is used for triggering the receiving party user to play the video information.

The virtual item message displayed by the recipient client is similar to the virtual item message displayed by the sender client, as can be seen in fig. 4D.

In step 412, after the receiving-side client acquires the trigger signal corresponding to the virtual item message, the receiving-side client displays a virtual item pickup page.

The virtual article pickup page comprises a playing control and a pickup control. And the receiving party user triggers to receive the virtual articles in the virtual articles.

As shown in fig. 4E, an interface diagram of a virtual item pickup page 54 is illustrated.

The virtual item pickup page 54 includes a play control 55 and a pickup control 56. Clicking on the play control 55 by the recipient user may trigger the recipient client to play the video information. Clicking on the pick-up control 56 by the recipient user may trigger the recipient client to retrieve a virtual item from the virtual items.

In step 413, after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the play control, the receiver client plays the video information acquired according to the virtual article identifier.

The user of the receiving party can click the playing control included in the virtual article message or click the playing control included in the virtual article pickup page to trigger the client of the receiving party to play the video information.

In a possible implementation manner, the receiver client determines the triggering manner of the video playing control by judging the network environment. Referring to fig. 4G, the process may be described as the following steps:

in step 4131, the receiving client acquires a trigger signal corresponding to the play control.

Step 4132, determine whether the current network is a Wifi network.

Step 4133, if the current network is a Wifi network, directly generating a trigger signal of the play control, automatically playing the video information, waiting for receiving the trigger signal of the pickup control, and acquiring the virtual item from the background server according to the virtual item identifier when receiving the trigger signal.

Step 4134, if the current network is not a Wifi network, not generating the trigger signal of the playing control, and not playing the video information; and waiting for receiving a trigger signal of the picking control, and acquiring the virtual article from the background server according to the virtual article identifier when receiving the trigger signal.

Step 4135, receiving the trigger signal of the play control, and triggering the video information to play.

In addition, the recipient client may obtain video information from the backend server as follows. In one example, a receiver client sends a video acquisition request to a background server, wherein the video acquisition request comprises a virtual article identifier; after receiving the video acquisition request, the background server inquires and acquires video information corresponding to the virtual article identifier from the pre-stored corresponding relation, and sends a video file containing the video information acquired by the inquiry to the client of the receiving party. In another example, the virtual article message sent by the background server to the receiver client further includes a file identifier corresponding to the video information. The receiver client sends a video acquisition request to the background server, wherein the video acquisition request comprises the file identifier; and after receiving the video acquisition request, the background server sends a video file corresponding to the file identifier to the receiver client. Optionally, the video file is a processed video file obtained by performing noise reduction processing on the video information.

In addition, the opportunity of the receiver client to acquire the video information from the background server includes several possible implementation manners as follows:

in a first possible implementation manner, after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the play control, the receiver client acquires the video information from the background server.

That is, after confirming that the receiver user needs to play the video information, the receiver client requests to acquire the video information from the background server, so that resource waste caused by the fact that the receiver user does not need to play the video information but acquires the video information in advance is avoided.

In a second possible implementation manner, after verifying that the user account logged in to the receiver client meets the condition of picking up the virtual article in the virtual article, the receiver client acquires the video information from the background server.

Wherein the condition for picking up the virtual article in the virtual article includes but is not limited to at least one of the following:

the user account logged in the receiver client is a contact in the single chat session interface, the user account logged in the receiver client belongs to a contact in a group corresponding to the group chat session interface, and an unreceived virtual article and a virtual article are not overdue. Through the method, the authority of the receiving user is verified, and only the receiving user who has the authority to receive the virtual articles in the virtual articles is allowed to check the video information recorded by the sending user, so that the privacy of the video information is improved.

In a third possible implementation manner, after the client of the receiving party successfully acquires the virtual article in the virtual articles, the client of the receiving party acquires the video information from the background server.

In this embodiment, the receiving user has the right to acquire and view the corresponding video information after successfully getting the virtual item in the virtual item.

And step 414, after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the picking control, the receiving party client acquires the virtual article from the background server according to the virtual article identifier.

And after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the pickup control, the receiver client sends a virtual article pickup request to the background server, wherein the virtual article pickup request carries a virtual article identifier. And after receiving the virtual article picking request, the background server inquires and acquires the virtual article parameters corresponding to the virtual article identification from the pre-stored corresponding relation and sends the virtual article to the client of the receiving party according to the virtual article parameters.

And if the virtual article parameters comprise the number of the virtual articles in the virtual articles, the background server transfers the virtual articles with the number from the account corresponding to the background server to the account corresponding to the receiver client. If the virtual article parameters include the number of the virtual articles and the total number of the virtual articles, the background server randomly generates the number of the virtual articles in the virtual articles acquired by the receiver client according to the number of the virtual articles and the total number of the virtual articles, and transfers the virtual articles with the number from an account corresponding to the background server to an account corresponding to the receiver client. And if the virtual article parameters comprise the number of the virtual articles and the fixed number of the virtual articles in each virtual article, the background server transfers the virtual articles with the fixed number from the account corresponding to the background server to the account corresponding to the receiver client.

In this embodiment, only the user clicks the pick-up control to trigger the pick-up of the virtual item in the virtual items is taken as an example. In other embodiments, the recipient client may also automatically retrieve virtual items from the virtual items.

In one example, the receiving-side client acquires the virtual item from the background server according to the virtual item identifier after the video information is played.

In step 415, the recipient client displays a pickup results page.

And after the receiving party client acquires the virtual article, displaying a pickup result page. The number of retrieved virtual items may be included in the retrieval result page. Optionally, the pickup result page further includes a message leaving control, and the message leaving control is used for a receiving party user to input message leaving information.

As shown in fig. 4E, after the receiving-side user successfully picks up the virtual item, the receiving-side client displays a pickup result page 57, and the pickup result page 57 includes a message control 58.

In step 416, the recipient client obtains the message information input in the pickup result page.

And the receiver user clicks the message control to trigger the message information input. The message leaving information is any one of characters, videos or videos. For example, the recipient user may record a video or video to convey a thank you to the sender user.

Step 417, the receiver client sends the message to the background server.

Correspondingly, the background server receives the message information sent by the client.

And 418, the background server sends the message information to the sender client.

Correspondingly, the sender client receives the message information sent by the background server.

The sender client displays the message.

In addition, the client of the sending party does not directly carry the video information in the virtual article generation request to the background server and sends the video information and the virtual article generation request to the background server separately, so that two different servers can be used for realizing the function of storing the video information and the function of sending and receiving the virtual article respectively, and the processing and storage pressure of the server for realizing the function of sending and receiving the virtual article is reduced.

In addition, the noise reduction processing is carried out on the video information, so that the interference of noise signals in the video information on the listening of users is reduced, and the audio and video information with better quality can be recorded even if a user at a sender is in a noisy environment such as a road, a market, a restaurant and the like.

In addition, the preview control is displayed in the virtual article sending page, so that the sender user can preview and play the recorded video information before sending the virtual article, and the subsequently sent video information is ensured to meet the user expectation.

In the above method embodiment, the step related to the sender client side may be implemented as a virtual article transmission method on the sender client side alone, the step related to the backend server side may be implemented as a virtual article transmission method on the backend server side alone, and the step related to the receiver client side may be implemented as a virtual article reception method on the receiver client side alone.

In one example, when the backend server is a cluster architecture shown in fig. 2, the virtual article sending method may include the following steps:

step 501, after acquiring a virtual article generation instruction, the client of the sending party displays a virtual article sending page.

Step 502, the client of the sending party obtains the video information and the virtual article parameters input in the virtual article sending page.

Step 503, displaying the preview control in the virtual item package sending page.

Step 504 plays the video information after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the preview control.

Step 505, a video file containing video information is generated.

Step 506, the video file is processed. Including but not limited to the process defined in step 406.

And 507, correspondingly sending the video file, the virtual commodity package parameter and the receiver information to a background server.

In step 508, the package of items server generates a virtual item identifier.

In step 509, the package server stores the corresponding relationship between the virtual item identifier, the video information, and the virtual item parameter.

At step 510, the package of items server generates a virtual item message.

The virtual article message carries a virtual article identifier. Optionally, the virtual article message further carries an identifier of the sender client and/or a file identifier of the video file.

Step 511, the commodity package server sends the virtual commodity message to the communication server.

Accordingly, the communication server receives the virtual article message sent by the article package server.

Step 512, the communication server sends the virtual object message to at least one receiver client according to the receiver information.

Accordingly, the receiving client receives the virtual article message sent by the communication server.

Step 513, the recipient client displays the virtual item message.

In step 514, after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the virtual article message, the receiving client displays a virtual article pickup page.

Step 515, the receiver client sends a video acquisition request carrying the file identifier to the video server.

Accordingly, the video server receives a video acquisition request sent by the client.

In step 516, the video server obtains the video file corresponding to the file identifier.

Step 517, the video server sends the video file to the client of the receiving party.

Accordingly, the receiving client receives the video file sent by the video server.

In step 518, after the receiver client acquires the trigger signal corresponding to the play control, the receiver client plays the video information in the video file.

In step 519, after acquiring the trigger signal corresponding to the pick-up control, the receiver client sends a virtual item pick-up request to the commodity package server, where the virtual item pick-up request carries a virtual item identifier.

Accordingly, the commodity package server receives the commodity package pick-up request sent by the client.

In step 520, the commodity package server queries and obtains the virtual commodity parameter corresponding to the virtual commodity identifier from the pre-stored corresponding relationship.

Step 521, the commodity package server sends the virtual commodity to the receiving client according to the virtual commodity parameter.

Referring to fig. 6, a flowchart of a virtual article sending method according to another embodiment of the present invention is shown. The method can be applied to the client of the sending party. The method may include several steps as follows.
