Conversion of text to unicode strings

I have to process J开发者_开发知识库SON files that looks like this:

\u0432\u043b\u0430\u0434\u043e\u043c <b>\u043f\u0443\u0442\u0438\u043c<\/b> \u043d\u0430\u0447

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how this encoding is called.

I would like to convert it to .NET Unicode strings. What's the easies way to do it?

This is Unicode characters for Russian alphabet. try simply put this line in VisualStudio and it will parse it.

string unicodeString = "\u0432\u043b\u0430\u0434\u043e\u043c";

Or if you want to convert this string to another encoding, for example utf8, try this code:

static void Main()
    {
        string unicodeString = "\u0432\u043b\u0430\u0434\u043e\u043c <b>\u043f\u0443\u0442\u0438\u043c<\b> \u043d\u0430\u0447";
        // Create two different encodings.
        Encoding utf8 = Encoding.UTF8;
        Encoding unicode = Encoding.Unicode;

        // Convert the string into a byte[].
        byte[] unicodeBytes = unicode.GetBytes(unicodeString);

        // Perform the conversion from one encoding to the other.
        byte[] utf8Bytes = Encoding.Convert(unicode, utf8, unicodeBytes);

        // Convert the new byte[] into a char[] and then into a string.
        // This is a slightly different approach to converting to illustrate
        // the use of GetCharCount/GetChars.
        char[] asciiChars = new char[utf8.GetCharCount(utf8Bytes, 0, utf8Bytes.Length)];
        utf8.GetChars(utf8Bytes, 0, utf8Bytes.Length, asciiChars, 0);
        string asciiString = new string(asciiChars);

        // Display the strings created before and after the conversion.
        Console.WriteLine("Original string: {0}", unicodeString);
        Console.WriteLine("Ascii converted string: {0}", asciiString);
        Console.ReadKey();
    }
