Zheng & Filippenko, GCN 30273; Redshift: de Ugarte Postigo, GCN 30272,
Blazek et al., GCN 30274; Kann et al., 30275) with Xinglong TNT telescope,
China, at 15:23:44 (UT), 20th. June. 2021, about 14.43 hours after the burst,
A series of R and B band images were obtained.
The afterglow is clear detected in our single image with a magnitude of 19.0 mag
in R band comparing to several nearby USNO B1.0 stars.
Observations are still continuing.
