A six-months Chinese visa in Hong Kong

Hi there

Sorry if this subject has been brought up before, I tried the search option and couldn't come up with much info... Does anyone know if it's possible to obtain a six-months visa to China at one of the travel agencies in Hong Kong? I am looking for the kind of visa that would allow me to remain in China for the full six months, without leaving and coming back. I have been to China in the past, and wish to stay for a longer period of time.

Thank you for your help
Ari

Forever Bright it was! It cost me 880 HK$ (for an Israeli passport - it might be cheaper for other passport) for a 6 months multiple entry F visa. Forever Bright and Japan Travel were the only travel agencies I found that was able to arrange such a visa, and in Forever Bright they had a really quick service - I put my passport on Friday afternoon and recieved it back on Saturday at 13:00.
