If it is a play on the next carrier's name, I think 河(北)舰 He(bei)jian is more likelyThink about it. 何剑 → 核舰 (hejian), obviously. But what about (Z)hejian(g)? CVN-19 as 浙江舰 confirmed??

I think Guangxi is the poorest coastal province.

Technically Guangxi is not a province, and unlikely a carrier will ever be named after it. But its sad that Hebei, a core coastal province that was among the first to industrialize only has slightly higher GDP/capita than Guangxi, which is just a collection of villages in mountains and jungle. Least they could do is name a carrier after Hebei.

I don't know why you're rambling on so much; I just want to state a simple fact: Guangxi is the poorest coastal province in China.
Whether it is or it isn't have zero relevance to whatever the next carrier will be called. I haven't seen people playing this fuss for a long time. Guangxi is at the provincial level so that alone makes it eligible to be named, that's it.
What's the fuss about Guangxi anyway? The 2nd 075 LHD is already named after that province.
And unless the PLA CMC decides to overhaul the naming convention regarding LHDs, Guangxi won't be getting a namesake proper CV for at least another 30 years.
Whether Guangxi would get a proper CV named after them is still a very long time away.

Guangxi is of zero relevance to this discussion period. 004 is not going to be named Guangxi.

You were the one that claimed Guangxi isn't technically a province. It must've been the weirdest take I've heard for a long time. Straight up 杠精
