From Henri Kenhmann at East Pendulum on 2021.01.31:
The 1st warship of the class Type 075 LHD appears to have completed its tests in the South China Sea. She was photographed on January 30 at the Zhanjiang Naval Base, suggesting her future assignment to the 6th Amphibious Flotilla of the Southern Theater Command (or South Sea Fleet - SSF). Scale models of Z-8 and Z-20 are seen on the bridge.
The Zhanjiang Naval Base is located in southern China on the east coast of the Leizhou Peninsula, Guangdong Province.
Zhanjiang Naval Base
China Coast Guard 5901 anchored at Zhanjiang Port, Type 901 supply ship "Chagan Lake", and Type 071 dock landing ship
And the Z-8L helicopter mentioned by Henri K above.
Since the Z-8L helicopter first flew in December 2017, the test was completed and it was commissioned in less than 3 years.
