The payload might be Weixing Hulianwang Gaogui 03 (卫星互联网高轨03), because Weixing Hulianwang Gaogui 02 was launched on August 1 by CZ-3B with similar drop zones...

Long March 3B rocket launch team

In 2024, the Long March 3B rocket is sprinting towards the 100th space launch of a single model. While carrying out high-density tasks, the model team continues to work tirelessly to achieve high-quality development. During the National Day holiday, all members of the Long March 3B rocket launch team stayed at their posts and carried out a series of pre-launch preparations at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center according to plan and procedures, and completed the launch site-related operation tests, data interpretation, quality inspection and confirmation in an orderly manner.

Strengthen confidence and go all out! We will rest assured that we are ready to go, celebrate the motherland's birthday with practical actions of sticking to our posts, and successfully complete the key battle before the first 100th space launch of a single model of our carrier rocket with a more high-spirited spirit and more refined operations. In the future, we will continue to have the ambition to strengthen our country, hone our skills to strengthen our country, and bravely build our achievements to strengthen our country. We will make persistent efforts and take advantage of the situation to make new contributions to building a space power.

100th? But that one will be the 99th CZ-3B launch no?
Or are they talking about another CZ-3B later this year?

Rumors say that it's three-digits serial number, Y100 or above.

Interesting detail pointed by Igor Lissov in this article (in russian), https://novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/articles/205689/

The number '100' is already present in this patch in a stylized form.

So possibly, this was Y100 (?)

The spacecraft took position at 77W which is quite strange for a Chinese GEO bird.
