Hey, man. I'm talking about advanced fighter pilots, not regular fighter pilots.
The PLA's training of ordinary fighter pilots has been a direct training model for a long time.

In China, the PLAAF has partnered with many prestigious high schools to create pilot classes. High school graduates with very, very good grades enter the pilot class after a physical examination and political review. The entire high school stage, completely military management, students do not have to pay anything. After graduating from high school, he entered the Air Force Aviation University. Straight after college, he became a PLAAF pilot. Mainly drive J10 series, J11 series, Su 30 series, Su 35 series. -- We do this mainly to compete for talent.
Before they could fly the J20, they needed to fly these aircraft for many years and achieve excellent results. Now, it is possible to fly the J20 directly after graduation.

The driving of the fifth-generation fighter is completely different from the ordinary fighter, and its flight control is much easier than the ordinary fighter, but the information processing ability is very strong and complex, and it requires the pilot to have a high cultural knowledge. This requires a very systematic learning process. CCTV has many interviews with J20 drivers, which you can find on Youtube. The driving requirements of the J31 and J20 are basically the same.
