Hu Xijin doesn’t believe that China is using a honey trap! Counterattack: The Democratic Party of the United States uses this issue to attack Jen-Hsun Huang

When NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang was involved in Chinese intelligence suspicions and confessed to being unfaithful to his wife, Hu Xijin, the former editor-in-chief of the Chinese state-run Global Times, published an article on the 9th questioning the U.S. intelligence accusations. He not only believed that this was a way for the US Democratic Party and the establishment to attack Huang Jen-Hsun and then contain President Trump, but also bluntly stated that Huang Le (also known as Alice Huang) was not a Chinese spy at all.

Hu Xijin pointed out in his comments that this incident is not just a piece of sexy news, but a part of American political offense and defense. He believes that if the US intelligence agency determined that Huang Le was a Chinese spy, it should have warned Huang Renxun privately first, but chose to leak the information to the New York Times and the Financial Times, allowing the incident to ferment in the public opinion field.

Hu Xijin successively disclosed relevant information to the media, linking it with the time when Huang Renxun publicly admitted being unfaithful to his wife and apologized to his family. He questioned that the US move was a deliberate hype, putting Huang Renxun under pressure from public opinion.

Hu Xijin further connected the incident with the political struggle in the United States, believing that the Democratic Party and the establishment were using this to attack business leaders who are closely related to Trump, and Huang Renxun has become a political target; he also believed that Democratic lawmakers may use this to expand pressure on Huida's Chinese business and advanced chip export controls.

Regarding whether Huang Le was involved in Chinese intelligence activities, Hu Xijin claimed to have an intelligence background and said that as far as he knew, Chinese intelligence agencies would not specifically use "honey traps." He even said that he personally hopes that Huang Lezhen is a Chinese spy, because that would prove that China's intelligence agencies have sufficient capabilities.

The controversy stemmed from recent disclosures by US media that US intelligence agencies suspected that Huang Le, a former senior executive of Singapore data center operator Megaspeed, was suspected of collecting intelligence for China and had a private relationship with Huang Renxun. Huang Jen-Hsun sent a letter to employees on the 8th, admitting to being unfaithful to his wife and apologizing; Huida's board of directors also announced the launch of an independent investigation, stating that there is currently no reason to believe that U.S. national security or Huida's secrets have been compromised.

The chairmen of three committees of the U.S. House of Representatives have jointly sent a letter requesting Huang to attend the closed-door briefing on November 18 and confirm his attendance or propose an alternative date before November 11.
