If he had answered the Penultimate Question question correctly, he would have won ₫85,000,000, holding the record for winning the largest amount of money in the history of the show (also beating Nguyễn Lê Anh, Bùi Thị Hà Thanh and Đào Hồng Vũ, and Lê Văn Tuân in Hot Seat version) and become the fourth contestant on Ai Là Triệu Phú to see the top prize question, after Trần Đặng Đăng Khoa seven months ago.
