My solution :
1.str_replace("\\", " ", "XXXXXX");
2.mb_substr("XXXXXX", 0, 1, "gbk");

As you've seen, CP936 (which supports GBK) encodes 運 as ß\. This results in the characters
  var_dump("ß\") // 0xDF 0x5C
and the unterminated string is what PHP is complaining about.

Fun fact: that problem right there is why CP936 is one of the very few encodings that allows SQL injection via Unicode.

CP936 just isn't safe. Use a different encoding in your console or find another way to represent that character (and the others like it) in code.

5c problem(CP936、Shift_JIS、windows-31j、sjis、MS932、EUC_JP)
For PHP security, I can only use the mbstring.

If you would like to use SJIS like encoding, you _must_ use zend.multibyte.
Please read the manual.
