General
You know the standard drill by now.
Hardly "an entire CSG" tho. For one there's no new Type 901 to commission. At most it's DDG-109, some 052D and a Type 093B if we're lucky...
Not making a fuss but I really struggle to see why they find it necessary to string everyone along for an extra day.
There's a point at which the hype never lives up to itself. Esp considering previous rumors that there would be a naval parade and it never happened. I sure hope the airwing has some interesting munitions to display...

See if the flight lands at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport.
The National Game's opening ceremony is scheduled on the 9th, so that should give the bossman a few days to inspect Guangdong province, if his schedule set to be so.
Update：
Looks like he is.

WTF is going on with PLA? Why keep the commission in secret? What for? I can't understand!! To avoid provoking Trump or what?
Ayi: Will we watch the commission footage until May 2026?
Edit: Let's wait today's evening news. Maybe yesterday's was indeed too hurry for the PR team.

Video editing and review take time. I guess tonight's 7 p.m. News Broadcast will show the ceremony.
It is interesting if Xi really spent a whole day in the naval base. Why was the ceremony so long?
