### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The method of claim 4, wherein the first operation comprises a sliding operation along the stylus in a first direction, the fifth control information is in response to the sliding operation being performed on the stylus in the first direction, the second operation comprises a sliding operation along the stylus in a second direction, and the sixth control information is in response to the sliding operation being performed on the stylus in the second direction.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The method of claim 4, wherein the first operation and the second operation are the same operation on different keys of the stylus.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein before receiving the first control information, the method further comprises establishing a Bluetooth connection with the stylus, wherein the first control information, the second control information, the third control information, and the fourth control information are received via the Bluetooth connection.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The method of claim 7, further comprising:
sending, by an electronic device, a first signal; and
receiving a second signal from the stylus when a distance between a tip of the stylus and a screen of the electronic device is less than a preset distance, wherein the first signal and the second signal comprise square wave signals, or the first signal and the second signal comprise baseband signals.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein not displaying the cursor at the second position of the display interface comprises not displaying the cursor at the second position of the display interface after a preset length of time from receiving the third control information, wherein the cursor is still displayed within the preset length of time from receiving the third control information.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The method of claim 9, further comprising:
receiving a seventh control information; and
performing a tap operation on content corresponding a position of the cursor within the preset length of time from receiving the third control information.

### Claim 11

A system for presentation control, comprising:
a stylus; and
an electronic device coupled to the stylus via Bluetooth, wherein the electronic device is configured to:
display a first interface that comprises a first control and a first prompt information, wherein the first prompt information comprises introduction information of presentation operation, and the presentation operation comprises at least one of a displaying cursor operation and a moving cursor operation;
wherein the stylus is configured to send a first control information in response to the stylus is being long pressed and,
wherein after receiving the first control information, the electronic device is further configured to display a cursor at a first position of a display interface,
wherein the stylus is further configured to send a second control information in response to the stylus being moved when the stylus is being long pressed,
wherein after receiving the second control information, the electronic device is further configured to display the cursor being moved from the first position to a second position on the display interface,
wherein the stylus is further configured to send a third control information after the stylus has stopped being long pressed,
wherein after receiving the third control information, the electronic device is further configured to not display the cursor at the second position of the display interface,
wherein the stylus is further configured to send a fourth control information in response to the stylus being long pressed, and
wherein after receiving the fourth control information, the electronic device is further configured to display the cursor at the first-second position of the display interface.

### Claim 12

An electronic device, comprising:
one or more processors; and
a memory coupled to the one or more processors and configured to store instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the electronic device to be configured to:
display a first interface that comprises a first prompt information, wherein the first prompt information comprises introduction information of presentation operation, and the presentation operation comprises at least one of a displaying cursor operation and a moving cursor operation;
