就绪 (jiù xù) — to be ready (for something to begin); to be in order
Definition
就绪 (jiù xù) means 'to be ready' but in a stative, formal sense — the system or setup is complete and waiting to start, not a person getting prepared. Use 预备 for the active act of preparing; 愿 is unrelated (it means 'willing / to wish').
