Report ties Alice Huang network to $7.5B Nvidia chip shipments to China

A news report alleges that a network tied to Alice Huang, also known as Huang Le, channeled at least $7.5 billion worth of Nvidia chips to Chinese companies since 2023. The Information, citing two acquaintances and corporate records, places Shanghai Century Litong, a Chinese data center operator, at the center of the alleged network, which also involves Huang's sister and husband. The report separately claims about 240,000 restricted chips, mainly H100 and H200 systems, reached China, though this unit count is distinct from the dollar figure. In late summer 2025, Bloomberg reported that Nvidia's general counsel called a U.S. Commerce official to inquire about an investigation into Megaspeed International, a Singapore-based firm linked to the alleged routes. Megaspeed later dismissed Bloomberg's reporting as misleading.
