c++/directx Convert unkown Charset of Chinese origin to a printable DX9 Font Text

Need help in solving charset problem. I read in game memory name into a variable. I believe its in some UTF-8 format, as I can log it to a ascii file and read it correctly. If I convert it to UTF16 to print on screen, its in wrong format - and does not display correctly on screen. I have a small dx9 project that works fine when I convert it myself. However I do not know the games charset to convert it properly. I have dumped the hex values of the in game player names. Need help Identifying charset used, and how to convert it to a DirectX printable charset.

My issue lies when I try to read a games internal memory of uknown charset
