How to add the name of the uploaded file to the database in Yii2?

Question

Yii

I'm uploading a file. In the controller I wrote:

$model->file = UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'file');
            if($model->uploadFile()) {
                return;
            }

In the model:

public function uploadFile() {
        if ($model->validate()) {
            $path = Yii::getAlias('@webroot/upload/global/books/');
            $model->file->saveAs($path.$model->file->baseName.'.'.$model->file->extension);
            return;
        } else { return false; }
    }

The file is loaded successfully, only for some reason the Russian letters change to crocodile. Who will tell?
