"The South China Sea Issue" means due to the contest among surrounding countries around the South China Sea about the interests of territory, resources, the delimitation of the sea and sea journey, etc, a series of prblems arose. On the other hand, coutries outside this region such as America, Japan, India, with their different strategic goals intervene into this region and lead to a series of new problems. So,"The South China Sea Issue" is the mixture of the two types of problems."The South China Sea Issue" is the strategic channel where Chinese economic development and influence intersect with the world, and it is the barrier which other coutries use to restrict China. What’s more,"The South China Sea Issue"is the chain that other laeding powers use to contain China. It is also the outpost where Chinese peaceful development strategy and other coutries’strategy engage in a battle of geopolitics.The rise of powers is abound to impact and change the existing pattern of the international system and the profit distribution pattern. At the same time, tension among emerging powers take place because of the snatch of geopolitical interests. In past history of mankind, almost every country’s rise could cause wars with power of original system. At the moment,the development and rise of China can form a certain change and impact to the world system,and this must lead to the systematic containment and repression from the existing systematic powers.But what is diffrernt from the past history is, the rise of China is a path of peaceful development,and is a positive exploration of the rise of powers.Besides,this is an important trial to break the curse that the rise of powers must lead to wars.In this paper,I try to analyse the correlation between "The South China Sea Issue"and China’s peaceful development, and reveal the complexity and versatility from the point of view of power strategy and geopolitical. I also try to find out the puzzle that "The South China Sea Issue" has produced to China’s peaceful development. According to the article, as China’s core interest, the soluting of "The South China Sea Issue" will have a profound impact on China’s peaceful development.The wheels of history are always move forward in constant challenges and responses. China’s development and progress is also in constant challenges and responses. The success of each response means the exceed and sublimation of the Chinese nation. At the moment, other powers use "The South China Sea Issue" to throw down the gauntlet to China, and China cannot refuse to accept the challenge. Because the cost for China to refuse challenge is give up the goal of moving towards the world, realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and giving up the goal of construction of a harmonious world. In the journey of accepting the challenge of "The South China Sea Issue", if China wants to get success, China must enhance the comprehensive strength. From this perspective,"The South China Sea Issue" objectively has a positive value for China’s peaceful development strategy. In this paper, I analized and discussed the strategic path of China’s response to the challenge from two aspects of promoting China’s hard power and soft power.The author thinks that, the promotion of hard power should develop the military, science and technology, economy and other fields. However, the promotion of soft power should from two aspects. One part is that, we should promote the country’s political credibility, and to achieve the goal that establish authority with credibility and promote peace with credibility. On the other hand, we should position China’s diplomatic culture, and strive for adhering for the culture of Xun Zi’s benevolent government or friend of Kantian culture. In this case, we can really promote the world towards a more harmonious direction through cultural innovation.
