What 成 means
It is not a separate word; read it as 成 in context.
In Chinese, 成 can mean finish, become, or bring about; the surrounding word settles the sense. Taiwan's Ministry of Education dictionary traces this variant to an older seal-script form redrawn in clerical script, an early style used in inscriptions and official writing, and cites the Huashan Stele and the Guangyun rhyme dictionary.
Keep it only when the exact source form matters
Unicode maps 成 to 成 and lists source T3-2627. The supplement keeps such forms so text can convert to and from Taiwan's CNS 11643 character set without losing its source entry. Normalization can change it to 成; 成 UFE00 is Unicode's standardized variant sequence where supported.

Questions people ask
1Why does 成 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
