As used herein, the term "server" refers to a central processing unit capable of providing a predetermined service through a network, more specifically, the Internet, and a visitor may access the central processing unit through a viewer terminal such as a computer or a smart phone. It is possible to access the server and utilize the service provided by the server.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing only essential steps of a movie viewing method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

However, this is only a preferred embodiment in achieving the object of the present invention, and it goes without saying that some steps may be added or deleted as needed.

Hereinafter, all steps to be described are performed through the movie ticket purchase interface 100. Here, the movie ticket purchasing interface 100 accesses the movie ticket purchasing site through a general movie ticket purchasing application or a computer that can access the online application store through a smart phone, for example, And a home page UI (User Interface) that can be performed.

In the following description, it is assumed that the movie ticket purchasing interface 100 is a movie ticket purchasing application downloaded and installed in a smart phone as shown in FIG. 2, assuming that the visitor terminal is a smart phone.

It is noted that the word "purchase rate" is a percentage of the current number of purchasable purchases to the total purchasable number, and that the purchase rate to be used in the following description may be changed to "purchase quantity "

First, a movie in which a discount ticket purchase available period and a discount ticket available purchase rate are predetermined is selected through the movie ticket purchase interface 100 (S210).

In the movie viewing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, the movie is a schedule of movies and movie theaters that have been recognized as low-budget independent, documentary and artistic films and works, , But it is not limited to this. It may include movies that have been closed but have been requested to be reopened, or movies that have not yet been unsealed to an auditorium. However, regardless of the movie, the discount ticket purchase period and the discount ticket purchase rate must be predetermined.

Here, the discount ticket purchase period means a time limit for purchasing a ticket for viewing a movie at a discounted price, and a discount ticket available rate is a minimum value required for viewing a movie using a purchased discount ticket Means the percentage of sales. As will be described later, if a discount ticket availability is not achieved, discount tickets purchased will automatically be refunded.

Describe one example of discount ticket availability period and discount ticket availability. When there are four movies available for purchasing a discount ticket in the movie ticket purchasing interface 100, such as A to D, the discount ticket purchase period for the movie A is from 11:00 am this Wednesday to 11:00 pm this week Tickets available for purchase up to 59 minutes, 30% for discount tickets, discount tickets for movie "B" available from 11:00 am on Thursday this Thursday to 11:00 pm on Fridays, discount tickets are available at 50% Discount tickets available for movies are available from 11:00 AM on Tuesday this week to 10:59 PM on Saturday. Discount tickets are available at 40%. Tickets for the movie D are available from 11:00 AM this Monday Discount tickets available until 11:30 pm this Thursday 20% discount for all films available, such as purchase rate 20% The available purchase rate must be predetermined.

However, even if the films are different from each other, the discount ticket purchase available period and discount ticket available purchase rate may be different from the above example. For example, the discount ticket purchase available period for movies A to D may be from 11:00 am this Wednesday to 11:59 pm this week, and the discount ticket available purchase rate may be 30% The operator can freely set up in consultation with the auditorium, but in any case the period of discount ticket purchase should be limited to before the movie screening time. In addition, the movie screening time will be basically determined according to the schedule of the auditorium, but it may be possible to set the movie screening time in the off-season season weekly in consultation with the auditorium.

Meanwhile, the operator of the recent movie ticket purchasing interface 100 operates the movie theaters independently owned by the movie theaters, and the ticket purchase for the movie screened at the movie theater is performed through the movie ticket purchase interface 100 operated by the movie theater In this case, no separate external consultation will be required, and only internal consultation between the departments responsible for each will be sufficient.

FIG. 3 shows a viewer selecting a movie A among movies A through C through the movie ticket purchasing interface 100.

Thereafter, the discount ticket purchase rate of the viewer selected for the movie selected in step S210 and the discounted ticket purchase rate by the show time is output through the movie ticket purchase interface 100 (S220).

Here, the screenings in which the movies selected through the movie ticket purchasing interface 100 are displayed may be in accordance with the schedules of the screenings as well as the discount ticket availability period and the discount ticket availability rate, but by matching n screens with respect to one movie It is desirable to provide various opportunities for visitors to choose from. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, it is possible to match three movie theaters such as Cheongdam, Sangam, Wangsimri and the like with respect to the movie A, and furthermore, it is possible to match one movie to Seoul, Gyeonggi, Gangwon, Chungnam, , Jeonbuk, Gyeongnam, and Gyeongbuk, and the number of theaters can be expanded according to the viewer's reaction.

The discount ticket purchase rate is output for each movie selected in the step S210 for each of the movie theaters and the screening time, and a method for purchasing a discount ticket that affects the discount ticket purchase rate will be described first.

A discount ticket means a ticket that literally shows the movie at a discounted price, and the discount ticket itself can directly select the desired seat. In addition, the discount ticket itself can be purchased first, and a separate seat can be selected when the discount ticket purchase rate is achieved.

Referring again to FIG. 4, three movie theaters such as Cheongdam, Sangam, Wangsim, and the like are outputted through the movie ticket purchase interface 100 with respect to the movie A, and at the same time, items for purchasing hot coupons are separately provided under each movie theater. Herein, the term coupon refers to a discount ticket, and the word " hot " itself can be regarded as a word indicating a feature of the present invention in which a movie can be viewed at a discounted price when a discount ticket available rate is achieved. However, this is only one embodiment, and if the ticket can be viewed at a discounted price when a certain ticket purchase rate is achieved, it can be considered as a concept included in the discount ticket of the present invention regardless of its name.

The viewer purchases the discount ticket through the movie ticket purchase interface 100 (S221). Here, the discount ticket purchase is the same as a typical movie ticket purchase process. As shown in FIG. 5, the visitor can enter the number of the discount ticket, the card number, the expiration date, the password, the date of birth, The discount ticket can be purchased independently for each movie and the screening time for the movie selected in the step S210 described above. Furthermore, if it is possible to directly select a desired seat with the above-described discount ticket itself, it is possible to directly select a seat in step S221.

If the discount ticket is purchased, the discount ticket purchase rate reflecting the discount ticket purchase result is output (S222). Here, it is preferable that the discount ticket purchase rate reflects the discount ticket purchase result of the visitor in real time, and it is preferable that the discount ticket purchase rate is highly likely to be achieved according to the viewer, and more specifically, This is because you may want to purchase a discount ticket. If discount tickets are not available, the discount tickets purchased will automatically be refunded and you will not be able to watch movies. The discount ticket purchase rate is also output independently for each movie and the screening time for the movie selected in step S210, like the discount ticket purchase.

The discount ticket purchase is completed for the movie selected in step S210 according to steps S221 to S222, and the discount ticket purchase rate corresponding thereto is output. Here, the discount ticket purchase rate can be solved by reflecting the UI (User Interface) factor because the viewer who wants to purchase the discount ticket should be able to easily see the current purchase rate situation. Hereinafter, a description will be made with reference to FIGS. 6 to 9. FIG.

FIGS. 6 to 9 are views showing a discount ticket purchase rate output through the movie ticket purchase interface 100, though there are some differences.

6 to 8, it can be seen that a specific number is output in the form of AB / CD in the lower left corner of the bar graph in the middle. Here, AB means the number of discount tickets that are currently purchased for the movie selected in step S210, and the CD means the total number of discount tickets available for each movie and the screening time for the movie selected in step S210 . For example, referring to FIG. 6, it can be seen that AB / CD is output as 95/150, where 95 means the number of discount tickets currently purchased and 150 means the total number of discount tickets available for purchase. Furthermore, by displaying the size of the AB letter larger than the size of the CD letter and displaying it in bold, it is possible to help the viewer to easily confirm the discount ticket number which is currently purchased.

Referring again to FIGS. 6 to 8, it can be seen that a specific number and a percentile symbol (%) are displayed at the lower right corner of the bar graph in the middle. Here, the specific number is a percentage of the number of discount tickets that are currently purchased for the total number of discount tickets available for each movie and the screening time for the movie selected in step S210. For example, referring to FIG. 6, since the number of discount tickets that are currently purchased is 95 and the total number of discount tickets that can be purchased is 150, a percentage calculated by 95/150 * 100 at the bottom left of the bar graph is 63% Are output together. This may also help to make it easier for the viewer to see the percentage of discount tickets that are currently purchased for the total number of discount tickets available.

Referring again to FIGS. 6 to 8, it can be seen that a specific number is output along with the cursor on the bar graph in the middle. Here, the specific number refers to the discount ticket purchase rate, which is the discount ticket purchase rate (%) required to view the movie through the discount ticket purchased by the viewer. For example, referring to FIG. 6, 30% is displayed on the cursor displayed on the bar graph, where 30% is a discount ticket available rate for viewing the movie.

On the other hand, a certain number can be displayed on the bar graph together with the cursor at the discount ticket purchase request number according to the discount ticket available rate instead of the discount ticket available rate. For example, referring to FIG. 9, 62 tickets are displayed on the cursor displayed on the bar graph. Here, 62 tickets are discount ticket purchase requests according to discount tickets available for viewing the movies.

If a certain number on the bar graph indicates the discount ticket purchase rate (%) required to view a movie through a discount ticket purchased by the viewer, the viewer can select the number of discount tickets that can be purchased for each screening period displayed at the lower right of the bar graph It is possible to determine whether or not to purchase a discount ticket by comparing it with the percentage of the discount ticket that is currently purchased. If a certain number on the bar graph indicates the number of discount ticket purchase requests according to the discount ticket available purchase rate, It is possible to determine whether to purchase a discount ticket by comparing the discount ticket number with the currently-purchased discount ticket number according to the displayed screen and the screening time. By displaying such related information together, the convenience of using the movie ticket purchase interface of the viewer can be greatly increased.

In outputting the discount ticket purchase rate as described above, the convenience of the visitor can be achieved by outputting a specific number and a cursor together on the bar graph, but the convenience of the visitor can be further improved through the bar graph itself. This will be described below.

Referring to FIGS. 6 to 8, it can be confirmed that the bar graph is divided into specific colors based on the cursor being displayed on the bar graph. For example, in FIG. 6, the left side is outputted as the first color and the right side is outputted as the second color and the third color with reference to the cursor. In the case of FIG. 7, And the right side is output as the third color. In the case of FIG. 8, the left side is outputted as the first color, the fourth color and the third color with reference to the cursor, and the right side is outputted as the third color. This can be seen as a constant rule. More specifically, the current purchase rate below the discount ticket available rate on the basis of the cursor is the first color, the current purchase rate exceeding the discount ticket available purchase rate is the second color, and the discount ticket purchase Is output as the third color. For example, referring to FIG. 6, since the left side is output as the first color based on the cursor, the current purchase rate has already achieved the discount ticket available purchase rate, and the right side is output as the second color based on the cursor Therefore, it can be seen that the current purchase rate exceeds the discount ticket available purchase rate. Furthermore, since the third color is outputted on the right side of the second color, it can be seen that a discount ticket that can be purchased remains. Similarly, referring to FIG. 7, since the first color and the third color are simultaneously output on the left side with respect to the cursor, it can be understood that the current purchase rate is lower than the discount ticket available purchase rate. Referring to FIG. 8, since the first color, the fourth color, and the third color are output together on the left side with respect to the cursor, it can be seen that the current purchase rate does not achieve the discount ticket available purchase rate due to the third color Since the fourth color not outputted in FIGS. 6 and 7 is displayed on the left side, it is necessary to know what meaning the fourth color has. 8, since the third color is outputted to the left of the cursor, the current purchase rate does not achieve the discount ticket available purchase rate, but in the case of FIG. 8, the third color is outputted to the left of the cursor in FIG. Very few parts. It can be seen that the present purchase rate is very close to the discount ticket available rate, and the fourth color can be regarded as an index indicating this state.

As such, the bar graph allows the viewer to easily grasp the current purchase rate and discount ticket available rate due to its own color display. In addition, such a bar graph is only one embodiment, and may be implemented to achieve the same purpose through other visual means as well as a bar graph, and the bar graphs shown in FIGS. 6 to 8 are mixed for a selected movie Of course.

In addition, in outputting the discount ticket purchase rate of the spectators by the movie ticket purchasing interface 100 and the viewer by the screening time, it is possible to output not only the contents described above but also a separate identification mark. Referring to FIGS. 6 to 8, it can be seen that a triangle-shaped identification mark is printed on the upper left corner of the middle bar graph together with the letters "success", "hot", " This indicates whether the present purchase rate has achieved the discount ticket purchase rate, and the color of the identification mark may be outputted in the same color as the bar graph indicating the current purchase rate to facilitate the convenience of the visitor. For example, referring to FIG. 6, since the current purchase rate is the second color in which the discount ticket available purchase rate is exceeded, the identification mark is set to the same second color, and the current purchase rate is set to the discount ticket available purchase rate 8, the identification number is the same first color, and referring to FIG. 8, since the current purchase rate is a third color which is in a state of being very close to the discount ticket usable purchase rate, As shown in FIG.

In step S220, the movie ticket purchasing interface 100 may output the discount ticket purchase rate of the viewer by the auditorium and the screening time, and may separately output the discount ticket purchase available period. Referring to FIG. 10, it can be seen that the discount ticket purchase available period is outputted in the form of hour, minute, second, etc. on the top of the movie ticket purchasing interface 100. This can be seen as a kind of countdown, If the available period has elapsed, it will be output as 0: 0: 0.

Meanwhile, the steps S210 to S220 described above are performed on the assumption that a movie is selected and a discount ticket purchase rate is output for each movie, and that a plurality of movies in which a discount ticket can be purchased are prepared for the selection of a movie. However, in some cases, only one movie for which a discount ticket can be purchased may be prepared in some cases. In this case, step S210 is skipped, and the discount ticket purchase rate of the viewer for the movie and the screening time is displayed You can do it.

If the discount ticket purchase available period has elapsed through the movie ticket purchase interface 100 after the discount ticket purchase rate has been outputted, it is determined whether the discount ticket purchase rate of the visitor has achieved the discount ticket available purchase rate at step S230.

If the discount ticket purchase rate of the visitor achieves the discount ticket available purchase rate in step S230, it is determined whether or not the discount ticket available rate has been achieved in the terminal of the visitor (S240).

Here, the notification may be notified through a notification method selected by the viewer at the time of joining the movie ticket purchase interface 100, for example, LMS, application push notification, e-mail, or the like.

If it is notified that the discount ticket available rate has been reached to the terminal of the visitor, an electronic ticket is issued to the visitors who purchased the discount ticket (S250).

In this case, if the discount ticket described in step S220 can be directly selected to the desired seat, the electronic ticket will be in the form of an electronic certificate that can be confirmed by the employee at the entrance of the auditorium, and the discount ticket itself is purchased first, If you choose to have a separate seat at the time of purchase, you will be able to select a seat from the discount ticket availability period to before the actual movie screening time.

On the other hand, if the discount ticket purchase rate of the visitor achieves the discount ticket available purchase rate, the movie ticket purchasing interface 100 may disable the cancellation and refund of the visitors who have already purchased the discount ticket after the discount ticket purchase available period . We purchased tickets at a discounted price, purchased a kind of joint purchase method, and the screening of the movie was confirmed according to the revenue of the auditorium. However, even if the discount ticket purchasing rate of the visitor can be canceled or refunded even if the discount ticket purchase rate is achieved within the available period of discount ticket purchase.

Discount tickets can not be canceled or refunded for visitors who have already purchased a discount ticket after the availability period, and general visitors who can not purchase a discount ticket within the discount ticket purchase period can purchase a regular ticket. I missed the period of discount ticket purchase, but there are some general viewers who want to watch the movie. In this case, as shown in FIG. 11, the movie ticket purchasing interface 100 may provide a separate page for purchasing movies for which a discount ticket purchasable period has elapsed, so that general viewers can proceed the reservation process will be.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S230 that the discount ticket purchase rate of the viewer has not attained the discount ticket available purchase rate, the discount ticket purchased for the visitors who purchased the discount ticket through the movie ticket purchase interface 100 is automatically refunded (S260).

The discount ticket that has already been purchased is refunded because it becomes impossible to view the movie using the discount ticket and the refund processing will be performed in such a way that the viewer cancels the means used for the payment when purchasing the discount ticket.

The movie viewing method according to the ticket discount purchase according to the embodiment of the present invention has been described so far. According to the present invention, it is possible to satisfy the viewer's viewing desire for films that have been approved for low-budget independent, documentary and artistic films and works but have not succeeded in boxing at the early stage of opening, There is an effect of watching one movie at the price of one. In addition, it is possible to attract viewers to the auditorium from the viewpoint of the auditor, and if the discount ticket purchase rate of the viewer fails to attain the discount ticket available rate, the movie screening is canceled, so that meaningless damage can be minimized.

Meanwhile, the movie ticket purchasing interface 100 may further include additional steps in addition to steps S210 through S230 described above. For example, the user may further include a step S205 of recommending a movie desired to be viewed from viewers as shown in FIG. 12 before the step S210, and a movie capable of purchasing a discount ticket may be selected according to the recommended number have. In this case, the recommended movie may be any one of the movie theater, the same movie having a different screening time, or a different movie.
