In the visa application form, i did not see appplication for multi entrance for 2 years, is it possible to apply multiple entry for 2 years?

Multi-entry visa for two years are only issued to professors and researchers of a university or researching department, the senior administers and technicians of a parent company who have to often to go to China for supervision, those who have science and technology communications, project development, enterprise in China, diplomats and so on.
