4. The method of claim 2, wherein searching the multimedia data corresponding to the backup mode in response to the second user operation, and backing up the multimedia data to the storage medium when it is detected that the amount of free storage space of the storage medium is matched with the amount of the searched multimedia data specifically comprise:

in the event that the backup mode is a selective backup mode, displaying a menu at a next level of the selective backup mode in the display area, and displaying all contact person information in a form of a list to a user;

acquiring an operation of ticking the contact person information by the user, and triggering a first instruction after it is detected that the operation is completely executed, wherein the first instruction operation is used for data backup processing for conducting selective backup on the ticked contact person information;

searching to obtain multimedia data including ticked contact person information, head portrait information corresponding to the contact person information, and a mapping relationship between the contact person information and the head portrait information in response to the first instruction according to the ticked contact person information; and

reading the storage medium after the search is completely executed or when the search is executed, detecting whether the amount of free storage space of the storage medium is matched with the amount of the multimedia data, backing up the multimedia data if the amount of free storage space is enough to back up data, and prompting in the display area that the amount of free storage space is not enough to back up data if the amount of free storage space is not enough to back up data.

5. The method of claim 2, further comprising:

triggering a third user operation after the storage medium located in the user terminal is placed into another user terminal, wherein the third user operation is used for selecting a contact person synchronization mode from the configuration data; and

synchronizing the multimedia data backed up in the storage medium to another user terminal in response to the third user operation, taking the contact person information in the multimedia data as newly added cellphone contact person information, and executing mapping relationship matching on the contact person information and the head portrait information corresponding to the contact person information according to the mapping relationship between the contact person information and the head portrait information.

6. The method of claim 3, further comprising:

triggering a third user operation after the storage medium located in the user terminal is placed into another user terminal, wherein the third user operation is used for selecting a contact person synchronization mode from the configuration data; and

synchronizing the multimedia data backed up in the storage medium to another user terminal in response to the third user operation, taking the contact person information in the multimedia data as newly added cellphone contact person information, and executing mapping relationship matching on the contact person information and the head portrait information corresponding to the contact person information according to the mapping relationship between the contact person information and the head portrait information.

7. The method of claim 4, further comprising:

triggering a third user operation after the storage medium located in the user terminal is placed into another user terminal, wherein the third user operation is used for selecting a contact person synchronization mode from the configuration data; and

synchronizing the multimedia data backed up in the storage medium to another user terminal in response to the third user operation, taking the contact person information in the multimedia data as newly added cellphone contact person information, and executing mapping relationship matching on the contact person information and the head portrait information corresponding to the contact person information according to the mapping relationship between the contact person information and the head portrait information.
