There are many possible reasons why your customers are not satisfied
(it's even possible that they do not understand what "chinese"

The OS PostgreSQL running on
PostgreSQL version
configure option
initdb option
database encoding
"chinese characters" not sorted in proper order (hex dump is preferred)
