[Compiled by Chen Chengliang/Comprehensive Report] New details have emerged about the relationship between Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang and the woman suspected of spying for China. The Financial Times, citing people familiar with the matter, reported that a U.S. government intelligence memo alleged that Huang had a "romantic relationship" with a female executive whom the United States identified as being recruited by China's Ministry of State Security.

The report pointed out that the woman was Huang Le (transliteration, also known as Alice Huang), a senior executive of Singaporean company Megaspeed. The memo was written earlier this year and presented to a handful of senior Washington officials ahead of President Trump's trip to Beijing to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping. The relevant content comes from people familiar with the memo, but the Financial Times has not published the full text.

Huida declined to comment on the memo or the allegations surrounding Huang’s relationship with Huang Le. The company has only said in the past that Huang meets with thousands of senior clients each year. The White House and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) also declined to comment, and Huang Le could not be reached.

Megaspeed, where Huang Le works, is an overseas customer of Huida. The U.S. government is investigating whether the company is suspected of violating export controls by transferring Huida's advanced chips to China. Huida previously launched an internal investigation into related allegations, but the review found no evidence of violations.

The news came to light one day after Republican congressmen in the U.S. asked Jen-Hsun Huang to attend a closed briefing on November 18 to explain to relevant House committees his interactions with Huang Le and Huida’s security mechanisms to prevent foreign espionage.

The Financial Times also reported that U.S. national security officials are privately dissatisfied with Huang. Huang personally lobbied Trump earlier this year to allow Huida to export H200 chips to Chinese customers. The United States is worried that China's acquisition of advanced chips may accelerate its military modernization.
