I have a String that has chineese characters in encoded form and I want to use some logic that will decode those chineese characters and write the chineese characters to a txt file.

Strings in Java consist of 16-bit Unicode characters.

You don't say anything about how your Chinese characters are encoded, so I cannot tell you how you should decode them.

To write the Chinese characters to a text file, you'll have to use a character encoding that supports Chinese characters. For example, UTF-8:

String text = ...;   // Whereever you get this from
 
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter("output.txt", "UTF-8");
out.println(text);
out.close();
