FTL only accepts... I think it's Unicode or ASCII characters. Chinese symbols fall outside of that, so it's not exactly possible (sorry!)

You have to replace the font files so that they have the characters required to display Chinese -- but I guess that's what you've tried to do in the first place.
I know Vhati has managed to add Spanish accents to FTL's fonts in the
spanish translation thread, so maybe there's something to learn there...
