Device Connection Establishment Method and Terminal Device

A system, comprising:

• a first terminal device connected to an input device configured to input a control instruction, wherein the first terminal device is configured to display a first interface comprising a cursor;
• and
• a second terminal device configured to display a second interface,
• wherein the first terminal is configured to:
• move the cursor to an edge on a first side of the first interface in response to a move operation performed on the cursor toward a first direction;
• start to establish a short-range communication connection to the second terminal in response to a move operation performed on the cursor at the edge on the first side toward the first direction;
• display first prompt information in the first interface, wherein the first prompt information indicates starting to establish the short-range communication connection;
• and
• continuously display the first prompt information for a first duration after the first terminal starts to display the first prompt information,
• wherein after the first duration, the second terminal is configured to start to display second prompt information in the second interface, and the first terminal is configured to continue to display the first prompt information, wherein the second prompt information indicates starting to enter a preset mode,
• wherein the second terminal is configured to display the cursor in the second interface after successfully entering the preset mode, and
• wherein in the preset mode, the second terminal is configured to perform a function corresponding to a first operation in response to the first operation being performed by a user on the input device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a first terminal, cause the first terminal to be configured to:

• move a cursor in a first interface to an edge on a first side of the first interface in response to a move operation performed on the cursor toward a first direction;
• start to establish a short-range communication connection to a second terminal in response to a move operation performed on the cursor at the edge on the first side toward the first direction;
• display first prompt information in the first interface, wherein the first prompt information indicates starting to establish the short-range communication connection;
• and
• continuously display the first prompt information for a first duration after the first terminal starts to display the first prompt information,
• wherein after the first duration, the second terminal is configured to start to display second prompt information in a second interface, and the first terminal is configured to continue to display the first prompt information, wherein the second prompt information indicates starting to enter a preset mode,
• wherein the second terminal is configured to display the cursor in the second interface after successfully entering the preset mode, and
• wherein in the preset mode, the second terminal is configured to perform a function corresponding to a first operation in response to the first operation being performed by a user on an input device of the first terminal.
