7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

providing guidance information corresponding to a second live stream room when the virtual interactive object appears in the first live stream room of the live stream platform, wherein the guidance information is used for guiding a user to follow the virtual interactive object into the second live stream room, and the second live stream room performs a live stream using a second virtual streamer; and

displaying the guidance information on the live interface of the first live stream room.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the method further comprises:

making the virtual interactive object appear in the second live stream room;

wherein a way in which the virtual interactive object appears in the second live stream room is the same or different from a way in which the virtual interactive object appears in the first live stream room, and time at which the virtual interactive object appears in the second live stream room is the same or different from time at which the virtual interactive object appears in the first live stream room.

9. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the method further comprises:

receiving an input of the user to follow the virtual interactive object, so that a viewing picture of the user switches from the first live stream room to the second live stream room.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

displaying at least one of visual effect or sound effect of the virtual interactive object appearing in the first live stream room on a display interface of the first live stream room when the virtual interactive object appears in the first live stream room; and

displaying at least one of visual effect or sound effect of the virtual interactive object leaving the first live stream room on the display interface of the first live stream room when the virtual interactive object leaves the first live stream room.

11. A virtual object interactive apparatus, applied to a live stream platform which provides one or more live stream rooms for a using party to conduct a live stream activity, the virtual object interactive apparatus comprising:

at least one memory that stores computer executable instructions; and

at least one processor configured to execute the computer executable instructions stored in the memory to:

establish a first live stream room on the live stream platform to perform a live stream by using a first virtual streamer;

make a virtual interactive object appear in the first live stream room for a preset time period during the live stream of the first live stream room, the preset time period being shorter than a time period of the live stream in the first live stream room;

obtain an appearing time point when the virtual interactive object appears in the first live stream room, the appearing time point being randomly set; and

make the virtual interactive object appear in the first live stream room when current time reaches the appearing time point,
