#? 1
The following information has been given:
  China
  Beijing Time
Therefore TZ='Asia/Shanghai' will be used.
Local time is now: Wed May 30 10:04:16 CST 2018.
Universal Time is now: Wed May 30 02:04:16 UTC 2018.
Is the above information OK?
1) Yes
2) No
#? 1
You can make this change permanent for yourself by appending the line
  TZ='Asia/Shanghai'; export TZ
to the file '.profile' in your home directory; then log out and log in again.
Here is that TZ value again, this time on standard output so that you
can use the /usr/bin/tzselect command in shell scripts:
Asia/Shanghai

1. Will TZ = 'Asia/Shanghai'; The export TZ line is added to /etc/profile (all users in effect) or ~/.bash_ES28en (current user in effect)

2. Just log out and log in again, or source /etc/profile or source ~/.bash_ES37en effective immediately

3. Then execute date to check the date and you will find that the time zone has been changed to Beijing time.
