Riding the wind of rebirth

"Mr. Raimundo, what do you think?" Matsui Zou now knew that thoughtfulness could not be underestimated.

Technically speaking, both Matsui Zuo and Kim Chunyi had enough confidence, which is why they dared to bring Raimondo to come to China for discussion and wanted to "jointly participate in this grand event."

But I didn't expect that the Chinese design concept was so big. Matsui knew that he had lost this game, so he had no choice but to rope in Raimundo, hoping that he could play some role.

Raimondo did receive the benefits from Matsui, but he never expected that China would have an individual member of the organization to control the situation this time.

The difference between individual members and corporate member representatives is that individual members cannot be changed, while corporate member representatives can be replaced by the company at any time.

In other words, if Raimondo himself does not have a corporate background, he is nothing.

Moreover, he was doing private work this time. If Zhou Zhi mentioned it in the organization after the meeting, what would the big boss do when he found out?
In order to calm the situation, is it possible to change the representative?Raimondo knew everything with his feet.

"Ahem..." Raimundo pretended to cough for a while, and he was organizing words in his mind like crazy: "The contribution of Hanwen Library to the UNICODE organization is obvious to all. It can be completed from conception to implementation in more than half a year. It has become a coding standard shared by the vast majority of information users around the world, and the Hanwenku working group has contributed a lot."

"We certainly hope that the three countries can share the successful experience of Hanwen Library and work together to build a Chinese, Japanese and Korean ideographic area, at least theoretically verify the feasibility, plan the design ideas, and formulate a work schedule."

"All of this, of course, requires the joint efforts of everyone. If there is anything that needs organization and coordination, you can convey it to the organization through Mr. Zhou and I, and we will definitely cooperate actively. Right, Mr. Zhou?"

Zhou Zhi couldn't help but laugh. This foreign devil was also a clever guy, a master of maneuvering according to the wind.

What I said just now is no different from surrender. The meaning of the last sentence, translated as: "I made the wrong trip this time. Are you satisfied with what I say now? Can you forgive me?"

So he didn't change his mind and turned to look at Minister Hu: "Minister, what do you think?"

Minister Hu is very satisfied today. It can be said that in the negotiations with other countries on the information industry that he has presided over, there were too many times when he was frustrated, and there were too few situations like today.

"Mr. Raimondo said it well, and everyone's discussion opinions are also very pertinent. Our ultimate goal is to get things done."

"Since the China-Japan-Korean Ideograph Region is a reasonable suggestion put forward by the UNICODE organization, we naturally have no objection. The focus now is on how to implement it."

"Based on the experience accumulated in the work of Hanwen Library, we have also discussed a plan internally, and now we are bringing it out to communicate with Korean and Japanese representatives."

"Thank you, Minister Hu." Matsui Zuo nodded at a wide angle this time: "Representative Jin and I are all ears."

"Elbow, tell me." Minister Hu was in a very comfortable mood and even called out Zhou Zhi's nickname.

"Our idea is to treat the ideograms of China, Japan and Korea as one region based on the guidance of the UNICODE organization. We will include all the ideograms from the three countries, the new islands, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and even all the special ideographic symbols that we can sort out so far. , all included in this region.”

"In that case, it is completely consistent with our opinions." Matsui asked carefully.

"From the design concept, it is indeed like this." Zhou Zhi nodded: "As for the definition of this region, we will make up a big list, which is a complete set. One is far from over, open or semi-open, it can The complete set of new characters will continue to be included." "However, this complete set will only serve as a standard and be stored in the storage devices of the standards committees of various countries. In practical applications, there are almost no places where the complete set can be used."

"For our country, three subsets will be selected from the complete collection and applied to different scenarios. This is the Hanwen Library divided into three phases."

"The subset that we have put into use now, which is the first phase of the Hanwen character set, will be called the 'Hanwen base character set' in the future."

"The next second phase will be called 'upgraded font'; the third phase will be called 'expanded font'."

"The base font library is built into the operating system to meet basic usage needs, while the upgraded and expanded versions are independently packaged into application software packages for use by special users."

"In this sense, Hanwen's third-level font library is actually just three different subsets of the complete set of characters in the Chinese, Japanese and Korean ideographic regions."

"According to this idea, island countries and Korea can also divide the subsets they need from the complete set according to their own application scenarios for their own country's information processing."

"Hanwenku also had this consideration before, and we defined it as the 'overseas version' of Hanwenku..."

"This is not good." Matsui said immediately: "We can agree with Mr. Zhou's idea of ​​delineating a subset in the complete collection, but we will not agree with Mr. Zhou's definition of the name of this subset as 'Hanwen Library Overseas Edition'. Because this is still based on China, such a name is not suitable."

"As I said, this was our previous consideration!" Minister Hu said: "At that time, I did not expect that the two countries would be interested in this. You two countries can decide the name of this subset yourself."

"But the coding of the first and second phases of our Chinese characters has been set, and the rules for the entry of new Chinese characters into the database will also be carried out in accordance with our existing dictionary compilation rules."

"This set of rules is actually also applicable to the special Chinese characters of Japan and South Korea. You two won't have any objections to this, right?"

Matsui Zuo and Jin Junyi were completely unable to refute that as long as it was Chinese characters, even if they created Chinese characters themselves, they would not be able to escape the structural rules of the "Six Books" of Chinese characters.

Seeing that the two of them were speechless, Zhou Zhicai continued: "So our suggestion is simple. Upgrade our current effective Han character encoding rules to the grouping of the 'Chinese, Japanese and Korean Ideographic Region' Character encoding rules, the Chinese characters created by the two countries are compiled into the "China, Japan and Korea Ideographic Region" according to this rule. For example, the character "tsuji" in the island country is composed of a walking side and a cross. It should be based on the radicals and characters. The root sorting rules have enriched the current 'Hanwen Library', ah no, the future 'Ideographic Area'."

In fact, it was better to change the soup rather than the medicine, but in this way, Matsui Zuo and Jin Chunyi felt that it was still acceptable.

Originally, this region was mainly based on Chinese characters. The easiest and most direct way to add self-created Chinese characters from the two countries was to follow the original traditional rules.

However, the previous statement was to join Hanwen Library, which was unacceptable to Japan and South Korea.

Now China says that although our Hanwen library accounts for the vast majority of the ideographic area, it still belongs to a subset after all, and your characters can also be a subset of the large area of ​​ideograms. We will build the complete set Finally, just take what you need.

This statement is very comfortable.
