Interesting, in the second image, that full-scale impact model is for the Mars lander program. You can even see the red soil on the ground.
I read this presentation (April 2022) again. There is an ironic twist. There was a time not long ago that people are saying that CZ-7 series will only have the 2 stage variant for cargo launch to the space station while most other jobs are done by CZ-8 series. It seems that number 8 will be the short-lived one as the slide says that both 6 and 7 will be replaced by 7B,C,D.
One thing to note is that CZ-7C is essentially CZ-8 with elongated 1st stage, CZ-7D is CZ-8A elongated, plus the new 2nd stage with one YF-75E replacing two YF-75.
As I always say 6,7 and 8 are all 7 from the beginning, and maybe will end up in 7 in the end. It is just a number or letter, no big deal. But Long Lehao does do a good job to keep us confused.

It's almost shameless and comical now that NASA wants to obtain info from China's orbitor and rover on Mars, yet it was the same NASA that excluded a quarter of humanity China from participating in the so called International Space Station or ISS. If it were the reverse, how would NASA and the US goverment react to China's request?
Chinese people literally eat aborted fetuses. NASA shouldn’t collaborate with such barbarians.
Accusations against China has always ended up self projection from Western policymakers, I wonder?
Give me a break! Such a claim deserves condemation by all. It can only come from people who are ignorant and ill-informed and with a view to demomise China. I'm not sure if people underdstand that China has a cultured civiliastion of over 5000 years. What stages were/are the US and the West at?
