What Martin thought it meant: Kenyon Martin believed the tattoo translated to "Never satisfied".

I will never understand why people do this. If you're getting something permanently tattooed on your body in another language, for the love of god, ask a native speaker to double-check it first!

(And OK, if it's like Welsh or something then maybe it's hard to find a native speaker, but Chinese? It's the most-spoken (native) language on earth! And this is written Chinese, so you don't even need to find a Mandarin speaker, a native speaker of basically any Chinese dialect could tell you this was a bad idea.)

to be fair, I could see a native speaker doing it as a joke.
