What Do I Do If Garbled Characters Are Returned When content-type in the JMeter Request Header Is Set to utf-8?

When JMeter is used to set the content-type request header to UTF-8, the request is returned properly. However, when CodeArts PerfTest is used, garbled characters are returned. This occurs because the UTF-8 encoding format needs to be specified in content-type. Delete undesired request headers, for example, Accept-Encoding: gzip.

Set content-type as follows.
