A solid fuel KZ-1A Kuaizhou-1A rocket will be launched from Jiuquan in December 2016. One of the satellites on board looks like to be a Jilin sat.
Can anyone help in translating the following from chinaspaceflight.com: 中新社武汉9月11日电 (记者 张素)中国航天科工运载技术研究院副院长张镝11日在武汉表示，拟在今年12月用快舟一号运载火箭发射“吉林一号”灵巧视频星03星及两颗立方体星。快舟十一号运载火箭将在2017年进行首次商业发射。

I'd understand this as
[China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp.] [Launch vehicles Technology Research Institute] [Vice-President] [Zhang Di] on 11th in Wuhan said to be in [this December] with [KZ-1 rocket] launch ["Jilin One"] [smart video satellite 03 Star] and [two cubes Star]. [KZ-11 launch vehicle] will be the first commercial launch in 2017.
So the main payload would be Lingqiao Shipin 03 of the Jilin-1 family of satellites. Two previous smart video satellites were launched with Jilin-1 per se.

So, we have Lingqiao-1 (3) and two CubeSats in this launch.

Does that mean that Lingqiao A and Lingqiao B are actually Lingqiao 1-01 and Lingqiao 1-02, respectively?

Does anyone know, what the differences between Kuaizhou-1A and Kuaizhou-1 are? Kuaizhou-1A for seperable payloads and Kuaizhou-1 for payloads integrated with the final stage?

This is what my impressions are judging from Chinese sources.

Since the second Kuaizhou satellite decayed from orbit on October 9th this year, I would have expected another of these birds to have been launched.

Sats on this launch are Jilin-1 (3), Xingyun Shiyan-1 and Kaidun-1 'Canton-1'.
Jilin-1 (3) is a high resolution video observation satellite.
Kaidun-1 will be used for maritime management (?)

The source is a certain Weibo user (who I think works in CAST or some other big organization) who has been spot on with all Chinese launches since 2015, so this should be credible.

Not Canton-1, Caton-1 for the Beijing company "Caton Technology Co.", a subsidiary of a California video streaming company.

According to
https://www.chinaspaceflight.com/satellite/Jilin1/Jilin1-03-KZ-1A.htmlThis is the first mission contract between Chang Guang Satellite
Technology Ltd (CGSTL) and EXPACE/CASIC. Jilin-1 Smart Video Sat 3 is
now called 吉林林业一号卫星 (Jilin linye yihao weixing, Jilin
Forestry 1 Satellite). There are two 2U cubesats: Caton-1
(凯盾一号) for Beijing Caton Universal Technology Ltd. (a.k.a. Caton
Technology (Beijing) Co. Ltd) and 行云试验一号 (Xingyun Shiyan yi
hao, Starcloud Test 1) for the 航天科工第九总体设计部
(Hangtian kegong di jiu zongti sheji bu, CASIC 9th Academy), which I think is also known
as the 中国三江航天集团 (Zhongguo sanjiang hagtian jituan, China
Sanjiang Space Group) based in Hankou, Hubei province.
The rocket is KZ-1A Y1
I welcome corrections from sinophone readers.
