Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a method and terminal device for generating an interactive user interface on a network television, and more particularly to a layered grouping on a network television The interactive user interface is convenient for users to click on relevant technologies. [Prior Art] Although the current domestic Internet TV (especially 丨PTV) market is not popular, it is generally optimistic after the Internet TV market, because Internet TV is better than traditional cable TV. The channel can provide more services for the viewers, and can be more interactive and affinitive on the human-machine interface. Taking the most basic channel program viewing function as an example, the competent authorities of China's cable television have fixed frequency regulations for cable TV channels, meaning that each program channel should be the same channel number when playing through different system operators in different regions. . Regardless of whether the cable TV operators in various regions have consistently adhered to the fixed frequency regulations, the fixed-frequency and grouped cable TV channels have not yet provided an ideal user interface for the viewers. The status of some cable TV channels and their classifications known in China are as follows: Foreign Films National Knowledge Shopping 63 - HBO 59 - Satellite TV Station 26 - DISCOVERY 83 - Dongsen Shopping One 64-CINEMAX 62 - Weft Come to Film Station 28 - National Geographic Channel 88 - Μ0Μ0 Shopping Desk 65 - Hollywood Movie 61 - Longxiang Film Station 29 - Animal Planet Channel 89 - VIVA TV Shopping 66 - Satellite TV Western Film Series 60 - Dongsen Film Station 27 - Travel Life Channel 84 - Dongsen Shopping II 67-AXN Channel 30 - Asia Travel Desk 85 - Dongsen Shopping Three Taiwan 68 - Dongsen Ocean Film Station 31 - Huashi Education Channel 87 - Dongsen Shopping Channel 69 - Weilai Yule 70 - National Geographic Channel 86 - Dongsen Shopping Wutai 201109977 As can be seen from the above table, the current cable TV channel has a group arrangement in addition to the fixed frequency. For example, the movie film station is concentrated in the channel 63~69. The film and movie stations are concentrated on channel 59~62. The shopping platform is concentrated on channels 83~89. However, if the assignment is not helpful for the user to select the station, the reason is as follows. 1. There is a cable channel, and the channel number is displayed in the upper right corner of the channel screen only when the channel is switched, but the channel number is for the user. The next channel change action does not have any suggestion, and the user cannot know what program the next channel is, and what program is next channel. Therefore, most users can only switch channels after browsing channels without a specific destination. In terms of the user interface, the user is not given any assistance or guidance. 2. As mentioned above, the existing cable TV channels are indeed standardized on the channel type, for example, certain number ranges in the same type of channel set, but in
