Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admits to affair with suspected Chinese spy; Bill Ackman and Elon Musk voice support
Bill Ackman, Elon Musk back Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang after affair with alleged Chinese spy
After Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted to an extramarital affair with Alice Huang (no relation to him), who is alleged to be a spy for the Chinese government, Bill Ackman, Elon Musk and U.S. President Trump successively defended him, and investors hope the founder who has led the company for more than 30 years will stay on. Nvidia has a market value of more than $4 trillion; Huang currently has 60 direct reports and no clear successor; Musk echoed Sequoia Capital partner Shaun Maguire's view that Huang is irreplaceable for U.S. AI leadership. Crisis PR expert Riccards said Nvidia will likely drag out the investigation as long as possible, and that it will be hard to find conclusive evidence proving Alice Huang is a Chinese spy.
