The program group uniquely brought together 30 female artists, all of whom are 30+ years old, in a PK group. These sisters have all had their share of success in the acting world, but they all face the same dilemma: in today's show business, they are already old and about to go out of fashion.
But the sisters on the show show a lot of energy and drive beyond their years. They lived together, rehearsed together, PKed together, and delivered a spectacular performance. In the end, the seven sisters left behind "broke the age of the group", their stage charm compared to the average age of early twenties of the young flowers, no less, or even better.
While the audience was watching the sisters' performances, they really felt that no matter what stage of life they are in, they can bravely set out to pursue their dreams and realize their own values with confidence, upward mobility and hard work.

This time, if someone said to you: do not let age become your bondage, aging, there are dividends. You, would you believe it?
Check out the book Life by Me! The answers to all kinds of confusion about age, career, parenting, and more for women can be found here.
Meyer Musk, the author of the book, is 72 years old, with silver hair and a glowing face. She is still active in the world of modeling and is also an Internet celebrity. Her remarkable life story has made her an inspirational icon to many women.
If that name is new to you, another name, Elon Musk, founder of Tesla, one of the biggest names in tech today, might give you something to think about. Yes, Elon Musk is none other than the oldest son of Meyer Musk, Meyer, who is Elon's mother.
"Life by Me" is Meyer Musk's autobiography. She made her debut on the runway at 15, got married and had a child at 22, and became a broke single mom at 31.
Since then Meyer has moved from city to city in three countries with her three children to launch her own business, while raising her children.
Eldest son Elon Musk, who founded the Tesla electric car company, also launched rockets; second son Kimball, who owns a restaurant that serves green ingredients and founded the Green Giant organization, which promotes all-natural foods; and youngest daughter, who is a screenwriter and director and runs her own entertainment company.
Meyer didn't stop learning herself while her children were growing up. She holds 2 master's degrees and is a renowned nutritionist in Canada.
In her 60s, Meyer returned to the runway and became popular with her silver hair, and at age 69, she was a one-woman sensation with 4 large billboards in Times Square.
Now, at age 72, Meyer is a speaker, model and Internet sensation who spreads the word about health. And the author of an autobiography, "Life by Me.
In the book, Meyer details how he broke through the difficulties in his life and accomplished the transformation of the Phoenix Rising. We can learn about Meyer's valuable life lessons about success, growth and family from three aspects.
I. Dreaming, acting, learning, professionalism, organizational skills and a sense of adventure. The strength of these family traditions, passed down from generation to generation, is an important foundation for Meyer and her children to succeed in life.
Meyer's family of origin was different. She had a pair of maverick parents.
The father's dream was to travel the world, so he bought an airplane for the family to travel in. It was a canvas-skinned airplane fitted with a propeller. This equipment would be cool enough even now, let alone back in the 1850s. It's no wonder the locals called the family "Crazy Americans".
Mother supported her father's dream with all her heart and was always there for him as he explored the unknown.
Meyer's parents dared to take their five children on airplane trips when they were young children. In those days, there was no GPS or radio in airplanes. Meyer's parents only with a compass and maps, and then according to the details of the route and destination, to make a detailed travel plan, and for any unexpected situation to be prepared. In this way, they traveled to more than 60 countries.
The trip that Meyer remembers most vividly was when she was in South Africa, where the family went to the Kalahari Desert almost every winter in search of the Lost City. The trip was inspired by an adventure book her father had read, and he put the idea into action, a **** that lasted twelve years. And the vast majority of the time, it was the family that completed that year's adventure together.
The trip across the desert was usually three weeks, and Meyer's parents would prepare three weeks' worth of food, water and gasoline before cramming their five small children into the car.
When there were no roads in the area they were traveling through, the kids would take turns running in front of the truck to make sure there were no potholes or stumps in front of them; when the car crashed into a tree, the father would get out a welding rod and work with his brother to fix it; and when the drinking water was inadvertently mixed with gasoline, the family would drink the "gasoline water" as they searched for a fresh source of water. ......
On their travels, they have seen all kinds of plants and animals, and encountered all kinds of dangers. Meyer's mother was bitten by a poisonous scorpion, her sister was chased by an ostrich, and she herself accidentally stood on the back of a crocodile while at the river. On the most thrilling occasion, a large lion patronized their campsite ......
There are always unexpected and varied emergencies on safari, but the Meyer family always has a way around them, too.
The family's travels and adventures together have embedded the family motto of "live adventurously and prudently" in each of the children's hearts.
Meyer's father always said, "There's nothing a Haldeman can't do! This became the creed of Meyer's siblings. Later in life, Meyer showed his children by the same example: there's nothing a Muskie can't do!
Dream big, take action, persevere in learning, value the profession, and have organizational skills and a sense of adventure. These important qualities of success in the family tradition have been passed down from generation to generation, from Meyer's parents to Meyer himself to Meyer's children, leading each of them on their own paths to success.
I. Maintain the power of self-growth: make a plan, start taking action, and be healthy and beautiful inside and out. Success has nothing to do with age.
Young Meyer had a hellish life. She entered into a marriage at age 22 and had three children in three years and three weeks. But her husband was not only a domestic abuser, he was also cruel. He even threatened Meyer with "shooting the kids in the knee" to keep quiet and not to mention divorce. So for nine years, Meyer lived with her husband's violence, carrying all the pain, humiliation and fear on her own.
Worse still, South African law did not protect women, and a man's mistreatment of a woman was not a basis for divorce, so Meyer did not know if she could get a divorce. But the year South Africa passed its "irretrievable breakdown of marriage" law, Meyer put divorce on the table.
In order to get out of the ghastly marriage as quickly as possible, Meyer asked for custody of her three children. It was only after a lawyer's fight that she finally got another small house that still had monthly mortgage payments and a sedan that didn't even have air conditioning.
The new life started thanks to Meyer's persistence in never stopping working. Like her own mom, working hard whenever she could was something that never changed for Meyer. Even during the time she was pregnant and raising children, she continued to work from home.
After becoming a broke single mom, Meyer went right back into her career full time. A nutritional counselor, which is popular in South Africa, Meyer had a number of clients; she also found some modeling work to supplement her income. But raising three children on her own, Meyer was still struggling to make ends meet.
Meyer's family lives in a small apartment, where only the girls can sleep in the bedroom and the boys on the couch; they eat cheap peanut butter sandwiches and bean soup as their most common food, and they hardly ever buy new clothes ------.
But all of that doesn't stop Meyer from moving forward, focusing on the moment, planning every step of the way and then giving it her all.
In an effort to advance further in the field of nutrition, Meyer moved to another town with her children and became a dietetic intern. There, she volunteered to teach model walks and image management, ran fashion shows, gave presentations on nutrition and building inner confidence, and raised money for scholarships for the nutrition program. Life was full and busy. During that time, Meyer also pursued a master of science degree.
Persistence led to the growth of Meyer's nutritional consulting business and a new opportunity in her modeling career ------ She became the only plus-size model in South Africa. At this point, both as a nutritionist and a model, Meyer was required to be in the public eye on a regular basis, and she had to maintain a good personal image. Meyer therefore developed her own healthy eating plan and adhered to it for years.
Chance always favors the prepared. As time progressed, Meyer's career took her to a broader stage, and she earned her way into the American modeling world.
When she competed with 300 beautiful young models for a Virgin America advertisement, she won. At the age of sixty-seven, Meyer's photos for the ad were practically all over the stations and subways. At the same time, the spread of Internet posts brought her even more visibility. People went crazy for her gray hair and Meyer became an Internet sensation.
Meyer says: When I was 15, I was told my modeling career would end when I was 18. Instead, I reached the pinnacle of my modeling career at 71. What I learned from that is that you can always find a way to move forward and you can always make another, better plan.
As a glamorous older model, Meyer also shares the following beauty tips in her book:
1. Seek professional help to create your own fashionable wardrobe. When a professional suggests a style of dressing that's completely different from what you've done before, don't be quick to say no, and use the question "Why not? " to give yourself a chance to try.
2. Don't say no to makeup; glamorous people never let themselves look drab when they make an appearance! Any way you can make yourself look more sophisticated and beautiful is worth trying and owning.
3. Be a person of substance and interest, not just pretty on the outside.
4. A healthy body will give you plenty of energy to face a busy life, and you will not regret to keep exercising.
5. No matter what time of the year, the pursuit of beauty as an important issue in life, so that their own appearance and the inner as "ready". All of this will lead to a more confident you.
Meyer, looking back on her life, talked about the painful marriage that had caused her to struggle, the discrimination she suffered in the modeling world, where fame and age are important, and the countless times she was rejected. She admits that her clothes are poor, her looks are not very good, she can't read people, and she's a "scumbag harvester". As a single mom, she lived in financial hardship for many years and lost faith in life many times.
But in the end, with her strength of character and her ability to learn, Meyer has grown into a beautiful, smart, powerful and free-spirited success story.
She used her own experience to tell us that although life is full of difficulties, there is still a way to change. Success has nothing to do with age, and aging pays dividends.
Two. The best family education is for parents who set an example and nurture independent children.
In Meyer's glittering resume, three wonderful children are a colorful part of the story that can't be ignored. It's hard to imagine that a single mother, who was left to fend for herself, not only raised her three children, but also educated them to excel.
Benefiting from a good family tradition and because of her status as a working mom, Meyer nurtured her children's self-reliance and independence at a very young age. Meyer believes that there is no need to be overprotective of children, which can cause them to become disconnected from reality and responsibility. It's enough to give children enough independence to be safe, and it's enough to ask them to be independent, kind, honest, considerate, polite, work hard and do more good deeds.
While Meyer carries out her work at home as a nutritional counselor, her oldest son, Elon, 10, helps her with the machine side of things, her second son, Kimball, 9, helps her with guests, and her youngest daughter, Tosca, 8, takes care of the registration information. Each child helps their mother in any way they can.
Meyer never checked the children's homework and never scolded them or told them what they should study. From an early age, the children learned to take responsibility and had a clearer and clearer plan for their lives. All three children independently completed applications for their respective colleges, scholarships and student loans without Meyer even seeing the applications.
When it came to her children's upbringing, Meyer gave them complete respect and allowed them to follow their own interests. When Elon was young, Meyer noticed that he loved to read anything and wouldn't forget every word he read, absorbing knowledge wherever and whenever he could. Kimball showed a remarkable interest in food at a very young age and was happy to cook and make delicious food. And Tosca has always had a great love for the art of movie performance.
With Meyer's constant encouragement and support, the three children followed their passions, studied and learned, and grew up to make their own careers.
Meyer believes that the most useful education for children is to let them see you trying to become a better version of yourself and to maintain an optimistic attitude towards life.
Working women don't have a lot of time to spend with their children, giving them more opportunities to develop their talents. This is an outstanding advantage when it comes to the education of children.
The Musk family today shines in their favorite fields, continuing their careers with vigor and passion.
After reading Meyer Musk's book, "Life With Me," I suddenly remembered an old Chinese saying: "One generation of grandmothers leads to three generations of children and grandchildren. A good woman in a family, with her genes and virtues, can indeed be a blessing to future generations.
So this book written by a woman is also a book written for every woman. I hope that women who are fortunate enough to read this book will have at least one-tenth of Meyer Musk's courage and energy when facing the trials and challenges of life, and will persevere until they emit their own light.
May the Force awaken in every woman. No matter what age you are, you will be able to ride the waves of your own life on the stage of your own life, life by me!
