This can display correctly here, encoded as chinese-big5-1 or
chinese-big5-2(Not sure about their differences).  The reason is that
the text you sent contains lots of traditional chinese characters,
gb2312 mostly only deals with simplified chinese characters.  You can
add something like the following(settings on my Mac OS X) to your font
encode family list:

,----
| (chinese-big5-1 . "stheiti*")
| (chinese-big5-2 . "stheiti*")
`----
