Alice Was Introduced to Jensen Huang by Her Own Husband

A new twist has emerged in the controversy surrounding Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and his reported relationship with Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang. According to a recent report by The Wall Street Journal, it was Alice’s husband, Chinese businessman Kang Wei, who introduced her to Jensen. Kang had reportedly known the Nvidia chief for nearly a decade through business connections. Citing people familiar with the couple, the report stated that Kang appeared to tolerate his wife’s relationship with Jensen for around two years. He allegedly joked with associates that Alice was Jensen’s “personal assistant” and openly spoke about their closeness. The report also noted that Alice and Kang had built an extensive business network over the years through various partnerships.

The relationship has attracted wider attention amid allegations that Alice may have been recruited by Chinese intelligence to gain access to sensitive information about Nvidia and its technology. US and Singaporean authorities have reportedly examined business transactions involving Megaspeed, a company associated with Alice, over concerns about the possible diversion of restricted Nvidia chips to China. However, the espionage allegations have not been publicly established, and China has denied claims of an intelligence operation. Meanwhile, Bloomberg has reported that Alice returned to China and is now believed to be in Beijing. Jensen Huang has acknowledged being unfaithful to his wife, while Nvidia’s board has initiated an independent investigation into the national security concerns raised by the reports.
