FIG. 5 shows a method flow for providing a value-added service according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method flow is based on the system structure shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, and FIG. 3, and the specific process is as follows:

Before performing all the steps of the embodiment of the present invention, the management user (ie, the Internet cafe administrator) can register as a legitimate user through the management terminal 100 to the server 300, and the data is saved by the user database 302 of the server 300 for the management. The end user logs in to authenticate. In step S501, the management terminal user logs in to the server 300 through the management terminal 100, and initiates a resource request, which specifically includes: (1) the management terminal user requests the login server 300, and the gateway service unit 301 of the server 300 authenticates the identity; 2) The authenticated user user collects the resource request of the client user and uniformly sends it to the server 300.

In an exemplary solution for performing identity authentication in the foregoing steps, the management terminal user inputs the authentication data according to the prompt of the server 300, and the server 300 searches and compares the user data from the user database 302 by using the gateway service unit 301, if the management terminal user is found. When the data is consistent and the comparison result is matched, the management terminal user is allowed to log in through the management terminal 100.

In an example scenario in which the resource request is initiated in the foregoing step, the management terminal 100 collects the resource requirements reported by all the clients 200 in the Internet café, and sends the data to the server 300 in the form of a request message, where the content of the request message includes : Type, quantity, expected price, etc. of the resource requested.

In another example scenario in which the resource request is initiated in the foregoing step, the management terminal 100 performs an autonomous application, and the parameters of the type and quantity of resources in the request message sent by the management terminal may be customized.

The resources mentioned in the above steps include various types, such as commodity resources (games, shopping vouchers, electronic pets, etc.), and privilege resources (membership, login qualification, etc.).

In step S502, the server 300 generates a corresponding resource according to the request of the management terminal 100 and feeds back to the management terminal 100. Specifically, the server 300 uses the gateway service unit 301 to receive the request message sent by the management terminal 100; (2) the server 300 uses the value-added service unit 303 to generate a resource corresponding to the request message; (3) the server 300 utilizes the gateway service unit 301. The generated resources are fed back to the management terminal 100. In this step, different types of resources are generated differently.

In an example scenario in which the resource is generated in the above steps, the type of the resource belongs to the commodity class resource, and the value-added service unit 303 can search from the locally stored commodity class resource, and extract all the searched commodity resource resources. In another example solution of generating resources in the foregoing steps, the type of the resource belongs to the rights class resource, and the value-added service unit 303 may generate a set of serial numbers, and map each serial number to a password one by one to generate an instruction. Each instruction is a permission class resource.

In step S503, the management terminal 100 issues the resources provided by the server 300 to the clients 200. In this step, different types of resources, specific distribution methods exist in a certain area. For commodity resources, such as game props, shopping coupons, etc., the management terminal 100 issues it directly to the client 200. For the privilege resource, such as membership, the management terminal 100 assigns the usage right of the resource to the client 200. As long as a user accesses the Internet at the Internet café, the privilege is provided by the server 300 when the client 200 logs in. Corresponding service.

The above is the system, the device and the method for providing the value-added service according to the embodiment of the present invention. Based on the system shown in FIG. 4, the management of the same group can also be performed, including: sending a prompt message to the client 200 whether to join the same group. If the client 200 selects yes, the client 200 is added to the same bar group to become a member of the same bar group; if the client 200 that becomes a member of the same bar group opts out of the same bar group or offline, the client 200 is removed from the client 200 Delete in the same group; forward and record messages sent between members of the group, and so on. As shown in Figure 6, the specific process is as follows:

In step S601, the Internet cafe user logs in to an instant messaging account through the client 200. In step S602, the server 300 uses its group management unit 304 to inquire whether the user is added to the same bar group. A typical example of the step is that the group management unit 304 sends an inquiry message to the client 200 where the Internet cafe user is located, prompting the Internet cafe user whether to join the same bar group, and the Internet cafe user selects: If yes, step S603 is performed; Select No to end.

In step S603, when the Internet cafe user selects to join the same bar group, it is added to the group by the group management unit 304 to make it a group member.

In step S604, after the Internet cafe user becomes a member of the group, the group message can be sent and received, and the session can be initiated, as well as various other operations. The group messages between the group members are forwarded and recorded by the group management unit 304. In step S605, if the same group member opts out of the same bar group, it is deleted from the group by the group management unit 304.

As can be seen from the above, the embodiment of the present invention introduces a server in the Internet cafe management system, and uses the server to generate corresponding resources according to the client user requirements counted by the management terminal, and feeds back the corresponding resources, and then reports them to the management terminal, and then distributes them by the management terminal. To each client, to achieve the function of providing value-added services. In addition, the server can also authenticate the management terminal and manage the group composed of Internet cafe users, thus providing a platform for Internet cafe users to exchange and share resources.

The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection of the present invention. Within the scope.
