PHP json 格式从mysql 中检索表示Unicode 中的数据

Question

I have some persian data in my mysql database, the retrieved data contains C/C++/Java Source Code encoded data for persian values as below;

{"server_response":[{"hp_number":"09301234567","name":"\س"}]} while in name column there is a persian character (س).

the php code is as below:

<?php

require "init.php";

$hp_no = "09301234567";
mysqli_set_charset($con,"utf8");

$sql = "select * From users Where hp_number = ('$hp_no');";
$result = mysqli_query($con,$sql);

$response = array();

while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
  array_push($response,array("hp_number"=>$row[1],"name"=>$row[3]));
}

echo json_encode(array("server_response"=>$response));

mysqli_close($con);
?>

on mysql side encoding is set as utf8_general_ci for both table and database itself and is presented perfectly with no issue.

Thanks in advance for your helps and suggestions.

I could successfully solve the issue by adding JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE as another parameter while encoding. so the code line changes to;

echo json_encode(array("server_response"=>$response),JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE);
