What's anyway interesting, the rumor-mill is heating up again these days. I know this does not mean these rumors are legit or there is something in the making, but at least it is interesting why this fuss now?

It will never be a supersonic design. The SCMP and Minnie Chan was simply wrong again.
In early 2018, Mr. He Shenqiang, the one in charge of H-6K series, gave this in an official interview: "We must not only be the designers of next-generation bombers but also be the definers of technical standards and the developers of future bomber combat modes".

Based on that, it is expected that H-20 be quite distinct from B-2 (which is stealthy but subsonic).

Stop with your fanboy wishes and fantasies. That article you linked is one big nothing-burger typical of Xinhua. Absolutely nothing technical was said or IMPLIED about nex-gen bombers.

In the early 2018 interview, Mr. He also said that "At present, H-6K's range, capacity, and reliability have all achieved their expected goals. Of course, we have not stopped continuous optimization and improvement. I believe that its further potential can be tapped soon."
Then here came H-6N and H-6J.

This is the JH-XX and H-X thread.

Yes, but how is this relevant to the H-20?

it probably has something to do with recent tensions between us and china, and one can sense nationalism sentiments on the rise on Chinese social media
