1. A method for performing charging on a network resource, comprising:
sending, by a network slice charging function device to a network slice management function device, a subscription request message that comprises an identifier of a network slice instance, wherein the subscription request message is used to request information for charging on the network slice instance corresponding to the identifier;
obtaining, by the network slice management function device based on the subscription request message, data corresponding to a network slice performance indicator of the network slice instance, wherein the network slice performance indicator describes a network performance of the network slice instance;
receiving, by the network slice charging function device from the network slice management function device, a subscription notification message that comprises the data corresponding to the network slice performance indicator of the network slice instance, wherein the network slice performance indicator describes the network performance of the network slice instance; and
performing, by the network slice charging function device, charging on the network slice instance based on the data corresponding to the network slice performance indicator.
