(ii) The last paragraph of the Reuters Sept 12 report quoted a Reuters statement.
Reuters does not have a Web page (with a unique URL) for the particular statement. Probably the quotation in the Reuters Sept 12 report is all that there is--in other words, the quotation is complete, in toto. 作者: choi 时间: 9-13-2014 09:54

China asserts paternal rights over Hong Kong in democracy clashBy James PomfretHONG KONG Thu Sep 11, 2014 6:31am EDTwww.reuters.com/article/2014/09/11/us-china-hongkong-insight-idUSKBN0H600120140911
two consecutive paragraphs:
“After the formal smiles and handshakes with Zhang Xiaoming, the head of China's Liaison Office in Hong Kong, the mood soured. Pro-democracy lawmaker Leung Yiu-chung 梁耀忠 asked Zhang whether Beijing would allow any democrat to run for the city’s highest office.
“Zhang, 51, dressed in a black suit and a navy blue striped tie, delivered a blunt response. ‘The fact that you are allowed to stay alive, already shows the country's inclusiveness,’ he answered, according to two people in the room who declined to be named. Zhang's office did not respond to several faxed requests for comment.
