That's the door to the drogue chute housing, it opens up prior to deploying the chute.

The J-10B allegedly "crushed" the other fighter jet models of the Chinese Air Force at the 2016 annual "Golden Helmets" competition, according to an informal source, but the results have not been officially registered.

Apparently because the score isn't an accurate assessment of the pilot's own abilities since the platform is superior by half a generation. This is similar to how third gen fighter pilots have their own separate competitions under golden helmet.
