US intelligence alleges that Jen-Hsun Huang had a romantic relationship with a Chinese female spy, the contents of the memo are exposed

The Financial Times reported, citing people familiar with the matter, that a U.S. intelligence memo assessed that Huida CEO Jen-Hsun Huang had a romantic relationship with Huang Le (also known as Alice Huang), a female executive of Singaporean company Megaspeed. Huang Le was deemed by the United States to have been recruited by China's Ministry of State Security. The memorandum was presented to a handful of senior Washington officials ahead of Trump's meeting with Xi Jinping in Beijing. Republican members of Congress in the United States requested that Huang attend a closed briefing on November 18 to explain his interaction with Huang Le and Huida's security mechanism to prevent foreign spies. Megaspeed is suspected of transferring Huida's advanced chips to China and is under investigation by the U.S. government. Huida, the White House and the CIA all declined to comment, and Huang Le could not be contacted.
