Copying raw files isn't the most reliable way to restore MySQL data. Much can go wrong.

Assuming the Chinese text is correctly encoded in your files, you'll need to set ...

character_set_client
character_set_connection
character_set_database
character_set_filesystem
character_set_results
character_set_server

... to utf8 or utf8mb4.
