In tramp mode, when I create a direcotry named 你好, it displays
'??????', this is the describe-char's output:

        character: ? (63, #o77, #x3f)
preferred charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV))
       code point: 0x3F
           syntax: .    which means: punctuation
         category: .:Base, a:ASCII, l:Latin, r:Roman
      buffer code: #x3F
        file code: #x3F (encoded by coding system utf-8)
          display: by this font (glyph code)
    xft:-bitstream-Courier 10

Character code properties: customize what to show
  name: QUESTION MARK

There are text properties here:

  fontified            t
  help-echo            "mouse-2: visit this file in other window"
