Alleged Chinese Spy in Nvidia Scandal Is Living in Beijing, Bloomberg News Reports
Megaspeed founder Alice Huang is living in Beijing as Nvidia’s board investigates allegations that she is a Chinese spy.
On Thursday, Alice Huang, the suspected Chinese spy at the center of a scandal involving Nvidia Corp. chief executive officer Jensen Huang, returned to Beijing with the knowledge of security officials.
Speculation regarding Huang's whereabouts intensified after the Nvidia founder admitted to an extramarital affair, prompting the company's board to investigate allegations she acted as a Chinese spy.
Megaspeed International imported Nvidia products topping US$4.6 billion, serving as a major hardware supplier in Southeast Asia and renting advanced chips to Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.
While Beijing has denied that Huang was a spy, her professional background includes roles at Shanghai Hexi Investment, HSBC Holdings Plc, and Citic Securities since 2015.
Previously designated an official Nvidia Cloud Partner, Megaspeed remains under scrutiny as the controversy roils markets and threatens the Nvidia chief executive's position.
