How to repeat my user entered string by the user input number

Question

I need to multiply the string by the number entered by the user.

For example, if he enters "hello" and he types 3, it must show hellohellohello

 int multStr() {

   char string;
   int multiply = 0;
   int j;

   printf("enter a string please");
   scanf("%s", & string);
   printf("now multiply your string");
   scanf("%d", & multiply);
   for (j = 0; multiply == !j; ++j) {
     printf("%s", string);
   }
 } 

But nothing is printed out, can i please get help?

Hey you got some bugs:

char string[100];//change to pointer

scanf("%s", &string);change this to --->gets_s(string,100)

for (j = 0; multiply>j; ++j)//change the condition

Hope this helped you and good luck later
