Woman suspected of being a Chinese spy kisses Jensen Huang on the cheek... Past video revisited

An intimate appearance at a Taipei restaurant in May last year... Boarding the same car after dinner

(Beijing = Yonhap News) Correspondent Jong-gu Han = After Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted to having an affair, his close behavior in Taiwan last year with a woman suspected of being a spy for the Chinese intelligence agency is attracting attention again.

According to Taiwan's TVBS on the 9th, CEO Hwang had a dinner with officials from artificial intelligence (AI)-related companies at a restaurant in Taipei during his visit to Taiwan in May last year.

Alice Huang (Chinese name Huang Le), who was recently embroiled in suspicions of being a Chinese spy, also attended this event.

Videos released by local media showed two people taking pictures with their arms around each other's waists or talking with their hands on each other's shoulders.

Alice Huang was also captured lightly kissing Jensen Huang's cheek.

After finishing their meal, the two left the restaurant with their attendants. Alice Huang got into the car first, and then Jensen Huang also got into the same car.

The two were previously spotted hanging out with other AI company executives at a bar in Taipei in June 2024.

Alice Huang is a former senior executive at Megaspeed, a Singaporean data center company, and was recently embroiled in controversy when foreign media reported that U.S. intelligence authorities had determined that she was a person captured by China's Ministry of State Security.

The New York Times (NYT) reported that U.S. intelligence authorities have been investigating Alice Huang's possible connections to Chinese intelligence agencies.

Jensen Huang has stated that his meeting with Alice Huang was a normal interaction with an executive at a client company, but in a message sent to employees on the 8th, he admitted to the affair, saying he was unfaithful to his wife, and apologized to his family and employees.

Nvidia's board of directors also launched an independent investigation into allegations that CEO Hwang was targeted by a foreign intelligence agency.

However, the board of directors stated that there is currently no basis to believe that national security or company secrets have been leaked.
