The structure of Intrnational System regularized and restrained the choice and result of nation's internationalactions. Nations are arranged in its powers in International System and those nation which has super-powers is likely to change the International System as a self-dominate hegemonic system. With the rise and fall of the hegemon based on un-equilibrium development in its power, the hegemonic system also developed cyclically. Because the hegemonic prestige can offer great profits, it is the most important national interest for hegemon, and therefore, to keep and preserve its hegemonic prestige through averting the adversaries or potential adversaries will be the key of hegemon's foreign policy. But the fact shows that the proceed of hegemon mostly is between the old hegemon and its cooperator or partner, not the adversary. Faced with the advantages of America and its western partners, China should try its best to avoid of being regarded as the adversary by America or developing as an adversary by ourselves. The best choice for China is to be a normal & original nation taking a free-riding and transcending policy as its profound and permanent grand strategy.
