Although I believe there is a Japanese version of InDesign, I don't think there's one using a Chinese operating environment. Although InDesign is based on Unicode, the western version of the app does not support Asian double-byte fonts. There will be a later release that does.  InDesign 1.0/1.5 does not fully support Unicode but you should still be able to place Chinese characters from a Unicode text file. The only trouble is that it probably won't happen by default--you have to change the encoding used by the Text import filter. To do this, turn on the Show Filter Options option in the Place dialog box, then click the Open button. InDesign displays the Text Import Options dialog box. Choose Unicode from the Character Set pop-up menu, then click the OK button to place the file. If the file contains Chinese characters using the Unicode encoding, you should see them when you place the file.  The only catch is that it's not guaranteed--it all depends on the "flavor" of Unicode used in the text file. This usually works, though.
