That would actually be the J-10, which is a rather different beast: a cheap export fighter, though perhaps it could be used to boost numbers as the J-7 retires.
The J-20 is still far away from any kind of "combat test".
As for what happened, I would reckon that the PR department thought that the footage of J-10 shooting at a drone was not sexy enough.
