Definition
大干一场 is a fixed four-character expression meaning 'to go all out' or 'to throw oneself into a big effort'. It's used when someone decides to put in maximum energy and resources to accomplish something significant, often after a period of preparation or hesitation. The 一 is read as yì (second tone) before the third-tone 场. This phrase is more colloquial and emphatic than simply saying 努力.
