A wing produces lift. So the 777 has two. The horizontal and vertical stabilizers are just that...stabilizers, not wings.

If you're going to consider every single airfoil on the aircraft to be a "wing", then don't forget the blades and vanes in the engines.

Actually Phil and Sue O are right. Both "horizontal stabilizers" create downforce, therefore are wings.
The vertical stabilizer includes the rudder, which also creates forces, therefore it is also a wing.

The "wings" on the tail is referred to as the horizontal stabilizer.
