Default adding a character

how do i create a condition on a particular cell if it's characters are less
than 8 it will add a character? e.g. if i put "abcdefg" in my cell, there are
only 7 characters in it. the other cell will automatically add a new 1 before
the original character so it will become "zabcdefg" which "z" is the
character added to make it 8
