Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

According to CTOnews.com news on April 20, Tencent today solicited WeChat Mini Programs, a rare character from the Chinese people, to go online, which is an entry for the submission of rare words guided and recommended by the Electronic Industry Standardization Research Institute of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

Users can enter Wechat by searching for "collection of rare characters" and submit rare words that cannot be entered normally by taking photos and uploading them. All the submitted Chinese characters will go through a series of links such as textual research, examination, coding, and so on, and the rare characters passed by professional examination will be included in the GB font, and will eventually be input and displayed in computers, mobile phones and other equipment and information systems, so that rare characters can enter the digital world.

Users who successfully submit rare characters will receive a "Chinese character Guardian Volunteer" digital badge, and if the submitted Chinese characters pass the preliminary screening, they can also keep track of the follow-up progress in real time in Mini Program.

In addition to the function of collecting obscure words, Mini Program has also set up a characteristic column for popular science. "Shengjianzi Square" displays the newly uploaded rare characters, and click to learn about the coding status, text interpretation and source story of the text. "interesting Chinese characters" allows users to learn about rare words in the form of interactive games.

According to incomplete statistics, China has more than 60 million people's names and a large number of place names, ancient books, and dialects that contain obscure words. Due to the lack of general codes in the computer system, these obscure words cannot be smoothly input and displayed in digital equipment, resulting in many obstacles in public life, such as difficulties in opening accounts for social security provident funds and inability to register in hospitals. In order to solve the problem of digitizing obscure words, the product side needs to support the new mandatory standard of "Information Technology Chinese coded character set" (GB 18030-2022).

CTOnews.com Note: "Information Technology Chinese coded character set" GB 18030 is a mandatory national standard for super-large Chinese coded character set developed independently in China, which is mainly composed of Chinese characters and contains 10 kinds of minority languages in China. It is the most important basic standard in the field of Chinese information technology. Information systems that need Chinese processing need to apply this kind of coding standard, so the implementation of the standard is rich and has a wide range of applications. It supports the needs of Chinese information processing and exchange in China.

Compared with the previous edition, the new version of the 2022 standard has entered more than 17000 obscure Chinese characters, which not only includes all the Chinese characters in the General Standard Chinese character Table, but also covers most of the rare characters of people and place names in China, as well as characters used in literature, science and technology, and other professional fields, which can meet the needs of all kinds of use. it provides a strong standard guarantee for inheriting Chinese culture, enhancing Chinese information processing ability, and meeting the needs of people with rare names.
