Chinese people cannot use computers without inputting Chinese. In the past, computers were only used in some professional fields. Except for full-time operators in institutions, few others used them. There were even fewer households equipped with computers. Therefore, it does not matter whether the average worker types quickly or slowly. In recent years, the situation has developed rapidly. Computers have penetrated into the management systems of all walks of life and government agencies at all levels, and have penetrated into schools and families. The use of the Internet to carry out email communication, e-commerce, online chat, etc. is also very active. It can be said that everyone uses computers to work, communicate or study every day. As a result, people increasingly feel that their typing speed is too slow. For example, online chatting is boring if the typing speed cannot keep up. Therefore, inputting Chinese and typing fast means high efficiency in work and life. For this reason, choosing an input method that is easy to learn and can type faster and faster is a common concern for everyone. Using pinyin codes or numeric codes can be said to be easy without learning, but it is difficult to improve the typing speed. Using the popular form code input in today's society, you have to memorize it by rote, and it is easy to recover after a period of time, which discourages many non-full-time input personnel. Are all shape codes inherently irregular and difficult to learn and use? No, the "Zheng Code" introduced in this book is a fresh world in the form code. Why are you so confident? Please listen to a few short stories about "Zheng Ma".
The crystallization of Zheng Yili's research on Chinese character encoding was approved
The official name of the patent applied for "Zheng Code" is "General Encoding Method of Roots", referred to as "Root Code", which is a famous Chinese character coding method in China. Professor Zheng Yili, a philologist and editor-in-chief of the "Yinghua Dictionary", has been researching Chinese character shapes and encodings for half a century. After my intervention in 1988, we made the same invention. After the "Zheng Code" passed the appraisal in 1990, it was optimized to comply with the national language and writing standards. In 1993, a review meeting of "Zheng Code" was held. Famous experts in the Chinese information industry conducted rigorous testing and review of "Zheng Code" and gave it a high evaluation. It is unanimously agreed that "Zheng Ma" is standardized, easy to learn, fast and versatile, and is at the leading level at home and abroad (see page VI of the evaluation report). Since Mr. Zheng made a foundational contribution in encoding Chinese character glyphs, experts say that the "Universal Encoding Method for Graph Roots" should be called "Zheng Code"!
Foreigners who don’t know Chinese characters can learn them in a few days. Is it still difficult for Chinese people?
Foreigners who do not know Chinese characters can also learn it in a short period of time. This is the best proof that "Zheng Ma" is easy to learn. South Korea's national treasure "Koryo Tripitaka" has more than 50 million Chinese characters. In 1995, South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. wanted to make it into a CD-ROM reader. The first problem they faced was how to quickly enter Chinese characters. After repeated inspections, they chose "Zheng Code". In late March, I went to South Korea to give lectures. The 30 Korean girls I met could neither read nor write Chinese characters, and had no idea about radicals. You can imagine how difficult it was to teach them to input Chinese characters. After 8 days of teaching (about 4 days of which were spent on translation), they were able to read the glyphs and record not only traditional Chinese characters in Buddhist scriptures, but also variant characters. At the beginning, their typing speed was very slow, and they could only type 5 words per minute. I returned to China after 10 days of training, and the Korean ladies also officially started typing Buddhist scriptures. A month later, Samsung sent me a fax saying: "A miracle happened! Now they can enter more than 60 Chinese characters per minute." By 2 months, they could enter more than 80 to 100 Chinese characters per minute. . You must know that Buddhist scriptures have no punctuation marks and can only be entered in single characters. Moreover, after rubbing and photocopying, the handwriting is not clear. However, 30 Korean ladies used "Zheng Ma" to write more than 50 million words in just over four months. The entire Korean Tripitaka is entered into the computer. The chairman of South Korea's Samsung Group said happily: ""Zheng Code" was Samsung's most successful technology introduction in 1995." Foreigners who don't know Chinese characters can master "Zheng Code" in just a few days, and the more they play, the better. Fast, for Chinese people, it is not a problem to learn it in 2-3 days.
We once went to the General Office of the Yunnan Provincial Government to train on "Zheng Ma". Most of the people who came to learn were cadres in their 40s at the division level and department level, and they learned it in two and a half days. Later, many people used "Zheng Code" to write reports and articles while thinking and typing. The young cadres were very envious when they saw it, so we organized another class for young people.
We have tested students in Beijing. The subjects of the elementary school were fifth-grade students. After 30 hours of cumulative training, they could input about 20 words per minute. After adding 36 hours of extracurricular practice, they could input about 50 words per minute. If they continue to practice, the input speed will increase. However, students faced entrance exams and stopped practicing for a year. After the high school entrance examination, the children sat down in front of the computer and could still enter the text using "Zheng Ma". I asked them why they hadn't forgotten, and the children replied that they remembered it after thinking about it. After 20 hours of training for vocational high school students, the best students can type 52 words per minute, and the worst can type 30 words per minute. After continuous use for a period of time, many students can type 120-160 words per minute.

2 Overview of Zheng Ma
Now, if you learn "Zheng Ma", it will take less time, because we have developed "Easy Learning" "Zheng Ma" practice software, practice step by step on the computer for two days, and you can type an article on the third day.
Ending the situation where Taiwanese contestants monopolize the traditional Chinese characters championship
Between 1990 and 1992, three computer Chinese input competitions were held across the Taiwan Straits. The competition items include 4 entries in simplified Chinese characters and 4 entries in traditional Chinese characters. In the first two competitions, all the traditional Chinese character championships were won by Taiwanese contestants. During the third competition, Taiwan planned to reward each champion with a magical computer. Since the computer had to go through customs clearance procedures, they thought it would be enough to bring 4 computers to prevent the four Taiwanese contestants who won the traditional Chinese character championship from carrying the computers again. Exit. The organizing committee asked for opinions, and I said it was not necessarily possible this time, because several students from vocational high schools would use "Zheng Ma" to participate in the competition, so it would be better to ask them to bring two more machines. Sure enough, Liu Yong won one championship each in simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese, ending the situation in which Taiwanese players dominated the championship.
In 1993 and 1994, students who used "Zheng Ma" won first place in the national computer competition for middle school students. I remember that the competition in 1994 consisted of 7 comprehensive events. At the end of the competition, coach Zhao Zhifang called me to thank me because Xu Mingfang, a student from the School of Finance and Economics, won the first place in the competition, with a score far ahead of 20 points, and won the team championship for the Beijing team. Ranking first laid a solid foundation.
If you cannot type rare characters, please use "Zheng Code"
Some industries are big users of characters, such as real-name management of public security and banks, digitization of library books, and scientific research and printing and publishing, etc., we often encounter uncommon names of people, places and words used in science and technology. In the past, this contradiction was not revealed because all documents were written by hand and there was no word that could not be written. In the past two years, computers have been used in all walks of life. It is really embarrassing to be unable to type out rare words, especially people's names. For example, some friends got a newly issued household registration book, opened it, and saw that all the items were printed neatly on the computer, but one of the words in their name was crooked handwriting, and some even replaced it with spaces. It was really disappointing. Disappointing. Banks often encounter problems with missing characters when logging depositors' names into their computers. As for the place names across the country that have been implemented at the village and village level, there are even 2,000 to 3,000 words that cannot be entered on a computer. Science and technology professionals often worry about the handling of uncommon words, especially the names of numerous fish, birds, and insects. However, these rare characters can be typed using "Zheng Code" on a computer. What is the reason for this? In fact, there are already 20,000 Chinese characters stored in the current Windows 95/98 system, but many people still use the old input method and cannot recall them.
If you select "GBK Zheng Code" in Windows 95, or set it to GBK status in Windows 98, you can use "Zheng Code" to easily call out a large number of rare characters, and you can also input simplified characters and traditional Chinese characters at the same time.
The root code and the word code extraction method are highly versatile
The biggest convenience of using "Zheng Code" is: I have learned to type thousands of commonly used characters, and when I encounter When using the same root table, the same encoding rules and code acquisition methods, tens of thousands of rare characters can be input with ease. It can be said that the versatility of "Zheng Code" is superior to other current input methods. There are many such examples that are incomparable. Once at an exhibition, our company's demonstration project was "Computer Full Chinese Character Processing Integrated Application System". This system can type 100,000 Chinese characters. The audience can select any rare character from the printed manuscript of 100,000 Chinese characters. The lady who demonstrated it typed Just press 4 English letter keys and the word will pop up on the screen. One day, this young lady fell ill. There was only one girl present who had only been learning "Zheng Ma" for two months. She usually only typed company documents using common characters. This time, she was asked to perform typing uncommon characters temporarily. Very worried. I said, "Just code these rare words in the usual way." Then, I picked some rare words from the manuscript and she was able to type them. Using "Zheng Ma" not only makes typing faster, but also uses the same rules to easily solve the problem of inputting rare characters. Even if you don't know the pronunciation of these characters, you can type them.
It is not a good thing to "upgrade" the input method, because the root codes and word decoding rules have changed, and the original users need to learn them again, which is very troublesome. The version of "Zheng Code" is stable and highly versatile. That is to say, the "Zheng Code" root code and word extraction rules learned eight years ago could input 6,000 general Chinese characters at that time. Nowadays, the same words are used in different Chinese operating systems, such as: Chinese Academy of Sciences' "Red Flag Linux", Microsoft's Windows 95/98/NT/2000, IBM's OS/2 or Zhongyi's "Quanhan Bridge 2000" For root codes and code extraction rules, you can also enter 20,000, 70,000, or even 100,000 Chinese characters. Each character can be encoded with up to 4 English letters. This is something that many input methods cannot do. Especially at present, all walks of life are facing the demand for large font sizes, which makes "Zheng Code" have broad application prospects. Therefore, it is worthwhile for everyone to spend 2-3 days learning Zheng Ma, because "learn it once and enjoy it for a lifetime."

3 Overview of Zhengma
The consistency with the literacy teaching background makes people feel familiar
The language and writing specifications issued by the State Language Commission are a guarantee for effective learning and use of language and writing. "Zheng Ma" conforms to the relevant specifications of the National Language Commission in terms of Chinese character glyph processing. For example: the basic radicals selected are the radicals in the radical specification; the radicals are classified according to the stroke shape of the first stroke, and the first stroke is determined to comply with the stroke order specification, etc. This ensures that "Zheng Ma" is not only consistent with the school's literacy The teaching has a common basis and makes adults feel familiar when learning this input method, making it easy to understand and master. For example, if you input the word "Xie", "Zheng Code" will process it as a combination of the three root characters "蠠, SHEN, Cun"; for the word "Very", "Zheng Code" will process it as a combination of the two root characters "彳, gen". Everyone will feel natural and friendly, and can accept it wholeheartedly.
It is conducive to the combination of literacy teaching, dictionary look-up and computer entry training
After sorting Chinese characters according to the encoding of "Zheng Code", the first characters with the same root can be relatively together (see Appendix 8). Therefore, using "Zheng Ma" as a word search method in a dictionary, even if you encounter a word that you cannot pronounce, you can quickly find the word you want to look up according to the code of the first root, and then achieve literacy through phonetic notation and interpretation. Purpose.
At the same time, you can get rid of the cumbersome word search method of counting radicals and strokes. If in the primary school literacy teaching stage, while explaining the radicals of Chinese characters, the teacher can use "Zheng Code" to look up the dictionary, even if the students do not have the conditions to use computers at that time, once they are exposed to it in the future, the Chinese character lookup codes will be the input codes of the computer, then, The new generation can enter Chinese characters easily and quickly without having to learn anything else.
For those who don’t want to spend time learning "Zheng Ma", you can use the "Zheng Ma first-stroke character search method" in this manual to find out the "Zheng Ma" code of the required uncommon characters. Inputting in GBK's "Zheng Code" environment can fill in the missing rare characters in the file.
In short, "Zheng Ma" has created very favorable conditions for the three combinations of literacy teaching, dictionary lookup and computer entry skills training, and will have a profound impact on my country's entry into the information highway.
Won numerous major domestic and foreign awards
The advanced nature and scientific nature of "Zheng Ma" have been widely recognized at home and abroad. In 1992, "Zheng Ma" won the Beijing International Invention Gold Award and the Most Excellent Award. In 1994, it won the 22nd Geneva International Invention Gold Medal. The judges commented: "The invention of the "Zheng Code" Chinese character system has made a significant contribution to the development of the cultural information industry in China and Asia."
Based on "Zheng Ma", developed by Beijing Zhongyi Electronics Co., Ltd. and based on the Windows Chinese system platform, the "Computer Full Chinese Character Processing Integrated Application" can process 70,000 and 100,000 Chinese characters. System" (the predecessor of "Chinese Character King"), in 1996, passed the evaluation organized by the State Science and Technology Commission, the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the China Association for Science and Technology and the National Natural Science Foundation, and won the "National Science and Technology Information Technology Outstanding Achievements" First Prize". I remember that at the expert defense meeting, more than 20 experts sat around the oval conference table and kept asking questions. Later, some experts wrote some rare characters that could not be typed on a computer, and some picked out weird-shaped uncommon characters from the 100,000-word typed manuscript to evaluate the application system we developed. When we used "Zheng Ma" to quickly put these words on the screen one by one, many experts stood up with great interest. Their doubts about "Zheng Ma" and the system were instantly eliminated in the face of this fact. disappear.
Later, "Zheng Ma" and this all-Chinese character processing application system won my country's highest scientific and technological awards - the second prize of the National Science and Technology Progress Award and the first prize of the Beijing National Science and Technology Progress Award.
In October 1998, the first "World Chinese Invention Expo" was held in Hong Kong. There were more than 500 exhibiting projects from mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and the United States. Our company went to the exhibition with a delegation organized by the China Invention Association. The expo is located in the famous Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center. All booths are arranged in a huge exhibition hall. Viewed horizontally, there are about 8-10 rows of booths. Viewed vertically, the hall is about 70 meters long, and the booths are closely arranged. Our company's booth is W94 - the last small booth near the middle row. Seeing such a huge formation, I thought: "Oh no, the judges may not be able to see our exhibition items." Two days after the exhibition, I saw people holding folders coming to visit our exhibition items from time to time. Ask questions, take notes, and request demonstrations. On the afternoon of the last day of the exhibition, a gentleman informed me that I should be prepared to receive the award at the banquet tonight. In the evening, before the banquet, the presidents of the invention associations of China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the United States were sitting on the rostrum, and Mr. Tung Chee-hwa, the head of the Hong Kong SAR, was sitting in the center. The awards started with the third prize. When the chairman read out the 45 first prize winners, our names were not heard yet. Soon, it was announced that the grand prize would be presented by Mr. Tung Chee Hwa personally, and three projects from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan won the grand prize. It wasn't until the chairman read to the last one that I heard the name "Beijing Zhongyi Electronics Co., Ltd., China". After presenting the awards to Hong Kong and Taiwan, Mr. Tung Chee Hwa personally handed the award shield into my hands. I accepted it on behalf of my 92-year-old father, all colleagues in the company, all friends who have supported Zhongyi’s career, as well as my husband and daughter. received this honor.
This ends the story of "Zheng Ma".
With the popularity of the Windows Chinese series, the installation rate of "Zheng Ma" has become higher and higher. People say "use Windows and learn Zheng Ma". However, many friends want to learn but don't know where to go, so they let "Zheng Ma" sleep in the Windows system. Many friends who switched to "Zheng Ma" complained to us: ""Zheng Ma" is easier to learn and use than many input methods. Why don't you increase your publicity and promotion efforts?" We appreciate the kindness of our friends. You must know that increasing the intensity of publicity and promotion requires the support of abundant funds and a large amount of energy investment. In recent years, our meager funds and limited energy have been fully invested in the production and development of the super "Zheng Ma" that can process 100,000 Chinese characters. 》application system, we really have no spare capacity to take more care of the promotion of "Zheng Ma", even if the "Zheng Ma" textbook has been out of stock for a year. What is gratifying is that now the application system for 70,000 and 100,000 Chinese characters has been successfully developed. The "Zheng Ma" textbook I wrote in my spare time has also been completed. Together with the "Easy Learning Zheng Ma" practice software, it can provide friends with A good helper for learning. I hope that through this textbook and practice software, I can help you quickly master this scientific and convenient Chinese input method, so that your carefully conceived content can flow along the fingertips jumping on the keyboard like a cheerful creek. , flowing towards the crystal clear screen.
Today, the application of computers is no longer limited to professional fields. It has made great strides into schools and families. Chinese character input has also changed from an operator's professional skill to a professional skill that everyone should possess. Facts have proved that "Zheng Ma" is the best choice for typing Chinese characters: after learning "Zheng Ma", you can type faster and faster, and you can use "Zheng Ma" to type characters that others cannot type. The Examination Center of the Ministry of Education has launched the new "National Computer Grade Examination Syllabus". You can choose to use "Zheng Ma" for Windows to participate in the Chinese input grade exam. The world of using "Zheng Ma" has been further broadened. Our wish is to let everyone have a Chinese input method that is both scientific and convenient. We are convinced that with the expansion of publicity and promotion scope, "Zheng Ma" will make greater contributions to the development of Chinese culture in the field of computer information.
