Description

This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202311315610.6, filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on October 11, 2023 and entitled "IMAGE SHOOTING METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE", which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD This application relates to the field of electronic technologies, and specifically, to an image shooting method and an electronic device. BACKGROUND With gradually increasing requirements for display quality and portability of mobile phones, foldable screen mobile phones are increasingly popular among users. The foldable screen mobile phone includes a front-facing camera and a rear-facing camera. Usually, when a selfie is taken by using the foldable screen mobile phone, only the front-facing camera can be used for image shooting, resulting in poor image shooting effect. SUMMARY This application provides an image shooting method, an apparatus, an electronic device, a chip, a computer-readable storage medium, and a computer program product. This can improve selfie effect and improve user experience. According to a first aspect, this application provides an image shooting method. The method is performed by an electronic device. The electronic device includes a foldable screen, a front-facing camera, and a rear-facing camera. The foldable screen includes a first screen and a second screen. The front-facing camera and the first screen are on a same side, and the rear-facing camera and the first screen face away from each other. When the electronic device is in an unfolded state, the first screen and the second screen are on a same side, or when the electronic device is in a folded state, the second screen and the rear-facing camera are on a same side. The method includes: when the electronic device is in a folded state, the first screen is in a screen-on state, and the second screen is in a screen-off state, displaying a first image shooting preview interface through the first screen, where the first image shooting preview interface includes a first control and a second control, and the second control is used to control switching between the front-facing camera and the rear-facing camera; receiving a first operation performed by a user on the first control; and in response to the first operation, controlling the first screen to be turned off, controlling the second screen to be turned on, and displaying a second image shooting preview interface through the second screen, where the second image shooting preview interface includes an image obtained by using the rear-facing camera. The electronic device may be an outward foldable screen device, for example, an outward foldable screen mobile phone. The first screen is also referred to as a primary screen, and the second screen is also referred to as a secondary screen. Optionally, the first screen and the first screen may be two parts of one foldable screen. The first control is a rear selfie control, and the second control is a flip camera control. Optionally, a layout (namely, a selfie entry manner) of the first control and the second control may be a tiled manner, or a sliding manner. If the layout of the first control and the second control is a sliding manner, the first image shooting preview interface may be an interface brought up by the user through sliding. If the layout of the first control and the second control may be a tiled manner, the first image shooting preview interface is an interface that can be directly displayed without the user operation. Optionally, the first image shooting preview interface may include an image obtained by using the rear-facing camera or an image obtained by using the front-facing camera. The second image shooting preview interface is an image shooting preview interface in a rear selfie scene. That is, a rear selfie scene may be accessed from a rear non-selfie scene in a folded state, or may be accessed from a front selfie scene in a folded state. Optionally, the first operation may be an operation of tapping the first control on the first image shooting preview interface. According to the image shooting method provided in the first aspect, when the electronic device is in a folded state, the first screen is in a screen-on state, and the second screen is in a screen-off state, the first image shooting preview interface is displayed. The first image shooting preview interface includes the first control. The user may trigger, by performing the first operation on the first control, an entry of a rear selfie function, that is, the first screen of the electronic device is turned off, the second screen is turned on, and the second image shooting preview interface in the rear selfie scene is displayed through the second screen. Because the second screen and the rear-facing camera are on the same side in a folded state, the user may capture, by using the rear-facing camera, a person or an object (that is, take a selfie) on a same sid
