Thanks for the report Christian.
I'm running 19.10 with the chromium snap. I opened the test page, and
all chinese characters appear to be rendered correctly. Same in a fully
up-to-date clean 19.10 VM. If I remove fonts-noto-cjk however, the
characters are not rendered correctly any longer.
Can you check whether fonts-noto-cjk is installed on your system?

Title:
[snap] Chinese Supplementary Unicode characters not rendered at all
(but working in .deb-Google Chrome)
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hi!
This is my first bug report in a very very long time, so please bear
with me, if the report is not that professional.
I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 19.10 just now and I installed
(nearly) every single fonts-* package and chromium-browser snap. And
firefox (deb), falkon (deb) and Google Chrome (deb)
Firefox and Falkon and Google Chrome do render all Chinese characters
correctly and instantly:
http://www.i18nguy.com/unicode/supplementary-test.html
Works fine with:
Firefox
Falkon
Google Chrome
Midori
Arora Browser (package: arora, pretty broken but it works on the test page)
surf (package: surf, suckless browser)
netsurf-gtk
(all tested just now on 19.10 eoan!)
Chromium Browser via snap does *NOT* display the characters at all:
http://www.i18nguy.com/unicode/supplementary-test.html
I went back to my install of Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS with the chromium-browser via
apt as a usual .DEB package. The test page on Ubuntu bionic does work
absolutely fine and 100% correct. Not even much fonts installed.
So I'm 100% sure this is snap related for Ubuntu 19.10.
Expected: Chromium Browser (snap) should display the characters on
http://www.i18nguy.com/unicode/supplementary-test.html
What happens: You can't get Chromium browser (snap) in 19.10 to
display the characters, no matter what.
