For those who don't wanna follow the Chinese bbs or can't speak English, here's a live tweet(it's still in Chinese, but should be much easier to understand using google translate than Chinese bbs).

Guess not. Otherwise, the K-8 would have been on the runway first.

WTF. They are dragging the K-8 back... Is that all or are there technical difficulties?

Well, show's over guys. If this was a test-flight, the K-8 would have flown first.

14:40 test pilot alight from the J-20, driven away. So goes the PLAAF (plus a few army) big shots leave the tower.

What, they big shots just come for high speed taxi test?

Hold on a second. I'm confused. Why do people believe there would be a flight test today? Who first leaked the info? It could be another planned taxiing test for all we know...

The big shots might be here for the actual event, meaning the flight test, sometime later. They showed up today just to take a peek.
