Foreign direct investment (FDI) has become a major power in promoting global economic growth. In recent years, FDI has played an important role in promoting the rapid development of China's economy.But, FDI, as a form of capital, is influenced by many factors in production of international investment, which can not be ignored. Financial crisis have made a serious adverse impact on China's FDI especially in the full-blown financial crisis in the world. The adverse effects, as well as the strategies for dealing with them, have become a new task to face in theory and practice.The ways of FDI in China and the transmission mechanisms were studied firstly, which were impacted by the financial crisis though international trade channels, channels for international capital flows, economic globalization and the self-fulfilling.

With the economic globalization, the monsoon effect exacerbated the conduction of the financial crisis.As a big country, the United States is a place, where the capital of the world accumulates. All the countries have also been a corresponding impact on the financial crisis when the financial crisis broke in the United States.The economic growth of the Western developed countries slowed because of the transmission, which have a similar in economic, political and cultural similarity.

The original structures were changed by the financial crisis while it reduced the import and export trade in China, and it increased the trade links between the potential emerging markets and developing countries.The financial crisis, originating in the United States, continued to spread in the world, and inhibited the growth of our economy though export, investment and consumption of these channels in a certain extent, and brought enormous pressure in growth of economy.For the above analysis, the coping strategies is tried to make, which is for dealing with the diverse impacts caused by the international financial crisis.
