As the host in Ai Là Triệu Phú

In late 2017, information on host Lại Văn Sâm leaving the show was publicized. While the final episodes with him as the host were being aired on TV, a competition of who would become the next host of Ai Là Triệu Phú was started. After the qualifying round, he and Đức Bảo was advanced to the Final where he finally beat Đức Bảo to become the new host of Ai Là Triệu Phú in the next few seasons.

• He also made two mistakes when hosting Ai Là Triệu Phú: accidentally altering Lê Thị Thanh Huyền’s name to Lê Thị Hồng Hạnh and fixing Phone-a-Friend’s lifeline name (Gọi điên thoại cho người thân) as Ask A Friend (Hỏi ý kiến người thân).
