Sharing by Famous Experts ~ Zhang Yumeng" Huang Renxun's extramarital affair case... Talking about China's long-term infiltration

Huang Le appeared in Taiwan twice and contacted Huang Renxun, which attracted attention from the outside world about loopholes in China's business exchanges and U.S. intelligence operations.

Quick Look

The author Zhang Yumeng uses Huang Le's two appearances in Taiwan to contact Huida CEO Huang Renxun to explore the censorship loopholes for Chinese people coming to Taiwan in the name of business, the 21-year United Front infiltration case in which Xu Chunying was suspected of helping Sun Xian hide his identity, and the process of US intelligence agencies monitoring Huang Le and "unmasking his identity."

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

Huang Le visited Taiwan twice to contact Huang Renxun, and was monitored by US intelligence agencies and his identity was confirmed by lifting the identity mask. At the same time, Xu Chunying was suspected of assisting CCP official Sun Xian to stay in Taiwan under a false name for 21 years.

◎ Zhang Yumeng

① Huang Le has been to Taiwan at least twice.

The first time was in June 2024 at COMPUTEX (Taipei International Computer Show). Huang Le appeared in a bar in Taipei, which is now widely reported by the media. She boasted during the banquet, "I have a way to invite Huang Renxun over." Shortly after finishing her speech, Huang Renxun appeared in a leather jacket.

The second time in May 2025, when Huang Renxun visited Taiwan, he had a meal at "Sanliu Restaurant" on Shida Road (now the famous "Huang Renxun Love Shop"). Taiwanese media captured Huang Le hugging Huang Jen-Hsun on the spot. After the meal, Huang Renxun was interviewed, and Huang Le also stood directly behind Huang Renxun.

② Anyone who comes to Taiwan with "Chinese nationality" must apply for a permit, and the Taiwan government will review it.

But in 2025 alone, more than 70,000 people from China will come to Taiwan "in the name of business activities." How carefully this "censorship density" needs to be done is a very practical dilemma.

③ Do you still remember the Xu Chunying case?

After an investigation, it was discovered that Xu Chunying was suspected of helping the Chinese United Front official "Sun Xian" hide his identity, and had been using the name of "business exchanges" to not only come to Taiwan, but also to "reach out to the entire Taiwan."

Since 2004, Sun Xian has been to Keelung, Shuangbei, Taoyuan, Hsinchu, and as far away as Taitung. The indictment shows that he contacted retired military police lieutenant general Li Zuyi, director of Minsheng Hospital Yang Wenren, and chairman of Beixiang Technology Chen Qinxiang.

It was not until 2025 that the entire wiring was 21 years old. When investigating Xu Chunying's suspected violation of the "Reverse Osmosis Law", underground exchange and fraudulent loans, Sun Xian, who was a member of the "Ancestral Unification Committee of the Communist Party of China", was traced.

④ How did Sun Xian come to Taiwan?

The method revealed by the prosecutors was that Xu Chunying invited Sun Xian in the name of "business activity exchange" of "Jizhi Company". When a travel agency acts as an agent, it is necessary to fill in the "Declaration Matters". The investigation determined that Xu Chunying asked the travel agency to falsely fill in "the applicant has not held any position or been a member of a party, administrative, military or political organization or organization in mainland China."

Moreover, the Taiwan government would require the submission of itineraries, but Sun Xian did not declare any of the important figures in Taiwan he actually met.

Xu Chunying was suspected of helping Sun Xian forge a fake "daily itinerary", and finally succeeded. Sun Xian successfully obtained an entry permit from the Immigration Department of the Ministry of the Interior.

This sounds creepy, but there are too many people from China entering Taiwan for "business", so if business people enter Taiwan, it will be more "simplified". In principle, the Ministry of Economic Affairs will review it and it will not be sent to the Mainland Affairs Council.

At present, it is not certain whether Huang Le entered Taiwan with Chinese nationality. But in practice, even if Huang Le's entry requires inspection, it is not "very difficult."

⑤ This time, because of the Huang Jen-Hsun incident, Taiwanese people have a better understanding of the "Unmasking" program of the US intelligence agency.

The New York Times specifically stated that "U.S. intelligence agencies cannot, in principle, legally monitor U.S. citizens without a court order." In intelligence reports, in principle, the names of U.S. citizens will be obscured, for example, written as "U.S. Citizen A."

Therefore, the New York Times exclusive on October 29 focuses on this time sequence. The United States first suspected that Megaspeed (Singapore Data Center Company) helped China obtain high-end AI chips controlled by the United States.

When electronic surveillance was launched on Huang Le, it was discovered that Huang Le had been in contact with an "American citizen." Finally, "Unmasking" confirmed that the American citizen was Jen-Hsun Huang.

⑥ In the U.S. counterintelligence ("spy-on-spy" work in vernacular), intelligence units can provide "defensive briefings" to "people approached by foreign forces", which is to remind the parties that "you may be exposed to risks."

Although the New York Times disclosed a confidential memo overseen by Secretary of State Rubio this spring, senior U.S. officials already knew that "Huang Le was recruited by China's Ministry of State Security" and that "her mission involved getting close to Huang Renxun."

But at present, it appears that U.S. intelligence agencies have not provided a "defensive briefing" to Huang Jen-Hsun.

The New York Times has two explanations. The first is that it is worried about alerting the public, and the second is that the U.S. government is worried that national security concerns will affect cooperation with Huida and Huang Renxun.

⑦ Private life is not the scope of my comment. But after Xi Jinping came to power, the "Ministry of National Security of China" did expand rapidly and began to strengthen "overseas security", artificial intelligence and hacking work.

CBS reports that China’s Ministry of State Security alone may have as many as 600,000 employees. According to a 2018 White House document, the Department of Homeland Security has approximately 40,000 intelligence personnel overseas.

From Hui Da to Huang Renxun, China's long-term layout or infiltration is not polite to you. The United States on the other side of the world is also cautious and fearful. I really don’t understand how naive those people in Taiwan who help China clean up their innocence every day still have.

Open Questions

  • Did Huang Le enter Taiwan as a Chinese national?
  • Why didn’t the United States provide a defensive briefing to Jen-Hsun Huang?

Kinmen suspects were involved in buying votes for candidates in cash, and prosecutors approved the ban

The Kinmen District Prosecutor's Office discovered that Zhuangjiao, surnamed Dai, was suspected of buying votes for a county councilor and village representative candidate in cash. On the 9th, he summoned the suspect and eight voters to the case, and seized 37,000 yuan in bribes. The prosecutor applied to the court for a detention ban and was allowed to do so because he was suspected of serious crimes related to the election and recall law and was in danger of colluding with witnesses to flee.
