Russians have anything like AEGIS Combat System?
Let us have a look at American kinetic options below.
For Air Defense role:
SM-3 missile variants can be used to intercept
ballistic missiles in Midcourse phase:
The U.S. Missile Defense Agency and U.S. Navy sailors aboard the USS John Finn intercepted and destroyed a threat-representative Intercontinental Ballistic Missile target during a flight test

SM-2 and
SM-6 missile variants can be used to intercept
ballistic missiles as well as
cruise missiles in Terminal phase:
Sea Sparrow missile variants can be used to intercept
cruise missiles in Terminal phase:
The Evolved Seasparrow Missile Block 2 successfully intercepted an aerial target with its active guidance seeker-head, in the missile's first live fire test

Arleigh Burke class Destroyers and
Ticonderoga class Cruisers are armed with these munitions.
For Anti-ship role:
Harpoon missile variants
Range =
250+ KM
SLAM-ER roots go back to the original Harpoon anti-ship missile placed in the fleet in the late 1970s. Because of emerging operational requirements, the Standoff Land Attack Missile (SLAM) was

SM-6 missile variants
Range =
370 KM
The supersonic SM-6 Standard Missile, designed to shoot down incoming aircraft and cruise missiles, has sunk a target ship in a test. The decommissioned frigate Reuben James went down off Hawaii in the January event, just disclosed today. The test was part of the Navy’s effort to rebuild its...

The live-fire missile shoot was part of a larger drone-focused experiment that also included swarming technology and various unmanned platforms.

There is much leap in logic in your post.
1. There is NO need for American Aircraft Carrier(s) to operate very close to Chinese coasts in the Pacific to begin with.
Even the nearest would be operating at a distance of hundreds of KMs from Chinese coasts in open ocean.
2. American Aircraft Carrier(s) are very likely to have incredible "situational awareness."
A combination of aircraft, UAVs and satellites are used for surveillance to create a battlefield picture for the entire American Carrier Battle Group to detect and track a wide range of threats in real-time. The system in use is called Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC).
Escorts such Arleigh Burke class destroyers and Ticonderoga class cruisers - each is armed with an assortment of kinetic interceptors to engage hostile aircraft, UAVs and missiles (see above), and also armed with long-range cruise missiles to engage facilitating radar systems and missile launchers from a distance of over 1000 KM and soften coastal defenses of the hostile country by extension.
3. In light of the above, there is no guarantee that Chinese forces would be able to subject an American Aircraft Carrier to a volley of 100 missiles in short order.
- American Aircraft Carrier(s) can hit 30+ knots in open ocean.
- Escorts will be used to subject incoming Chinese ASBM and cruise missiles to intercepting, jamming and spoofing activities.
China has developed a missile that would turn an aircraft carrier into a two-billion-dollar hulk of twisted metal, flame, and dead sailors. Publicly, the

What if they manage to jam Beidou navigation system? ASBM such as DF-21D and DF-26 depend upon cues from Beidou navigation system to engage a moving ship.
China can continue spending money on anti-ship ballistic missiles, but it might not be the capability needed to win if a conflict broke out between the U.S. and China, the admiral overseeing Navy intelligence said Wednesday. Vice Adm. Jeffrey Trussler, the deputy chief of naval operations for...

- Chinese forces will be engaged in the process.
Expect heavy losses in a battle.

It is surprising to note that some Chinese members think of USN as a joke. Maybe study naval warfare for a change?
It is possible for a large Chinese force composition to defeat an American Carrier Battle Group in a battle in open ocean in theory but not without suffering heavy losses in the exchange. The particular Chinese force composition will be toast as well.
Problem is that there are multiple American Carrier Battle Groups to account for, and I have yet to expand on capabilities of American allies in the Pacific.
Be realistic, comrade.
