Hello, I would like more information for making a tourist chinese visa.

Here is my situation. I am French, and I am currently studying in Korea. Next week, I am going to travel and stay a few days in Thailand and then, I would like to apply for my Chinese Visa because I want to join a friend who actually lives in China. By the way, I will sleep in her house. That is why I really want to know exactly what documents I need in order to make my application. Also, I need a multi-entry, is it possible?

Thanks a lot.
