Find and rename long file names (html)

Hi Guys,

I need a help. I have 1130 zip files. Each one of them has files including 1 html file with long file name (includes special charactors, Alphabetic and numbers).

I have copied all 1130 zip files to my linux system and extracted using below command.
Code:
Find . -name "*.zip" -exec unzip {} \;

Now, I have got 1130 folders, each of them has files including 1 html files with long name as I told earlier.

All I want now, I want to find all html files and rename it in the same folder (i.e abc.html), because since It's html files I don't want to move this files to different folder.

I tried this command going to each of the folder. It works.
Code:
mv [file_name.html] abc.html

or
Code:
rename [A-z,0-9]*.html abc.html *.html

but how long this will take to do it for 1130 folder Smilie.

Please I need a script to do all at once.

Thanks,
Rajmani
