But isn't this a bit too early ... almost one month in advance. So I assume yet another short trail before ...

Look at the red part of the rear deck ... looks as if the anti-slip coating on the flight deck is being applied.

OedoSoldier just tweeted on 27 Mar 2019:

China's two largest state-owned shipbuilding enterprises, the China Shipbuilding Heavy Industries Group (CSIC) and the China Shipbuilding Industry Group (CSSC), will merge within this year.
The shipyards that produce the PLA naval ships I mentioned earlier are almost entirely under the umbrella of these two companies.
