"The big time" nghĩa là gì?

'The big time' = thời đại to lớn, nghĩa là đỉnh cao của sự thành đạt (the time when someone is famous or successful).

Ví dụ
Kendal darts (phi tiêu) pro hits the big time: Tony Newell, 32, beat (đánh bại) three time World Champion John Part on his way to securing (giành được) victory at a qualifying (đấu loại) event in Wigan that ensured (đảm bảo) his place on the European Tour in Gibraltar. It is a momentous achievement for Newell who has now qualified for his first European Tour Event within just two years of turning professional. He now goes head to head against Europe's best arrowsmiths (a maker of arrows) to compete for a share of the £115,000 tournament pot.

Miley's favourite geeks hit the big time: On Saturday, Alt J play London's 20,000 capacity O2 Arena, the biggest headline show of their career. This huge arena seems an odd place to find such a quirky (quanh co), intricate (phức tạp), arty trio, as the band themselves concede.

At 21, Curtis cellist (chơi đàn celo) already at home in the big time: The Boston Symphony, it turns out, finds it easy to play with Aldort. The Curtis Institute of Music senior auditioned for the ensemble (khúc đồng diễn) over two days in October, and from a pool of 200 hopefuls won a spot in the cello section. At 21, he joins the BSO this fall as its youngest member, it announced this week.

It now appears that the Surface Pro 3 is relatively glitch (chạy không đều)-free and ready for the big time. That's a big step up from the problems we've seen with the last nine firmware patches (miếng vá, miếng đắp). Wonder how long it'll be before we see a Surface Pro 4?
