Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's affair with suspected spy stuns Taiwan fans
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang faces investigations by the company's board and the FBI over an affair with a suspected Chinese spy, stunning his admirers in his birthplace Taiwan, where he holds rock star status. Fans in Taipei, including shopkeeper Hsiao Kui-yu and barber Ray Wang, expressed disbelief and sympathy, calling Huang a good boss and praying for him. Taiwan's Deputy Foreign Minister Chen Ming-chi declined to comment on the espionage allegations, citing lack of evidence and authority. Huang, born in Tainan and raised in the U.S., has long praised Taiwanese tech firms like TSMC. Academic Liu I-li urged comprehensive judgment, saying nobody is without flaws, as Huang's personal troubles have also impacted his wealth and Nvidia's succession planning.
