I am not sure what encoding is used by default when opening a text file with these applications when the system language is chinese; you may need to force the encoding. With TextEdit, make sure "traditional (or simplified) chinese (Mac OS)" is selected in the open dialog. If you see correct chinese text in TextEdit when forcing the chinese encoding, then you probably need to force FMP to use this encoding as well, but I don't know FMP enough.
