A method for indicating a resource location to receive a broadcast message, applied to a network device, and comprising: generating resource location indication information of the broadcast message, wherein the resource location indication information comprises an identifier of at least one bandwidth part, BWP, and resource location information corresponding to each BWP in the at least one BWP, and the resource location information is used to indicate the resource location where a user equipment, UE, receives the broadcast message transmitted by the network device; and transmitting the resource location indication information to the UE, where the method further comprises: transmitting, by the network device, first control information to the UE, in a case that it is determined that a frequency range in which the broadcast message is transmitted by the network device is not within a first frequency range, wherein the first control information comprises a second frequency range, and the first control information is used to indicate switching a working bandwidth of the UE from the first frequency range to the second frequency range, the first frequency range is a frequency range in which the UE currently works, and the frequency range in which the broadcast message is transmitted is within the second frequency range; and transmitting, by the network device, second control information to the UE, in a case that it is determined that the UE has switched the working bandwidth of the UE from the first frequency range to the second frequency range, and the UE has successfully received the broadcast message within the second frequency range, wherein the second control information comprises the first frequency range, and the second control information is used to indicate re-switching the working bandwidth of the UE from the second frequency range to the first frequency range, wherein the working bandwidth of the UE is one BWP of multiple BWPs in a system bandwidth supported by a cell. generating resource location indication information of the broadcast message, wherein the resource location indication information comprises an identifier of at least one bandwidth part, BWP, and resource location information corresponding to each BWP in the at least one BWP, and the resource location information is used to indicate the resource location where a user equipment, UE, receives the broadcast message transmitted by the network device; and transmitting the resource location indication information to the UE, where the method further comprises: transmitting, by the network device, first control information to the UE, in a case that it is determined that a frequency range in which the broadcast message is transmitted by the network device is not within a first frequency range, wherein the first control information comprises a second frequency range, and the first control information is used to indicate switching a working bandwidth of the UE from the first frequency range to the second frequency range, the first frequency range is a frequency range in which the UE currently works, and the frequency range in which the broadcast message is transmitted is within the second frequency range; and transmitting, by the network device, second control information to the UE, in a case that it is determined that the UE has switched the working bandwidth of the UE from the first frequency range to the second frequency range, and the UE has successfully received the broadcast message within the second frequency range, wherein the second control information comprises the first frequency range, and the second control information is used to indicate re-switching the working bandwidth of the UE from the second frequency range to the first frequency range, wherein the working bandwidth of the UE is one BWP of multiple BWPs in a system bandwidth supported by a cell. transmitting, by the network device, first control information to the UE, in a case that it is determined that a frequency range in which the broadcast message is transmitted by the network device is not within a first frequency range, wherein the first control information comprises a second frequency range, and the first control information is used to indicate switching a working bandwidth of the UE from the first frequency range to the second frequency range, the first frequency range is a frequency range in which the UE currently works, and the frequency range in which the broadcast message is transmitted is within the second frequency range;
