U+7C4C "籌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
籌
U+7C4C "籌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a character that represents a tally stick, counting chip, or token historically used in East Asian societies, particularly in China, for numerical record keeping and calculation. In modern usage, it appears in terms related to preparation, planning, and fundraising, such as "籌備" (to arrange or prepare) and "籌款" (to raise funds). The character is composed of the bamboo radical "⺮" on top, indicating its material origin, and the phonetic component "壽" (longevity) below, which contributes its pronunciation in Mandarin, where it is read as *chóu*. Overall, "籌" embodies both a concrete historical artifact of accounting and an abstract concept of strategic organization.
