WSJ found out about the role of Alice Huang's husband in her meeting with the head of Nvidia

American entrepreneur and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang met his mistress Alice Huang, who is suspected by the US intelligence services of spying for China, through her husband, businessman Kang Wei. This was reported on November 11 by The Wall Street Journal (WSJ), citing sources.

According to the newspaper, for two years, Kang Wei knew about his wife's romantic relationship with the head of Nvidia and did not object. Moreover, he sometimes jokingly referred to Alice Huang as the entrepreneur's "personal assistant."

As journalists found out, Kang and his wife, also known by the Chinese name Huang Le, have jointly managed the Shanghai Hexi investment fund since at least 2016. The company has invested in technology projects, including video games, pharmaceuticals, and cloud computing. It was through the foundation's activities that Kang Wei met Jensen Huang in the 2010s.

In 2023, the couple acquired the Singapore division of the video game development company, which later became known as Megaspeed International. Alice Huang became its CEO. According to the WSJ, with the assistance of Alibaba, the company received priority access to Nvidia chips in November of the same year.

Subsequently, Alice Huang established contact with the head of Nvidia. According to the newspaper, citing photographs and eyewitnesses, they met several times in 2024-2025. In May 2025, Taiwanese media published materials about their dinner together, during which Jensen Huang's daughter photographed the couple.

On November 7, Jensen Huang confessed to Nvidia's board of directors that he had an intimate relationship with a woman whom American intelligence suspected of collecting information in favor of Beijing. Shortly after, on November 8, Nvidia's board of directors initiated an independent investigation.

Nvidia shareholders filed a class action lawsuit against the company and Huang on November 9, accusing them of concealing information about the businessman's relationship with Huang. The next day, Forbes magazine drew attention to the fact that Huang's fortune dropped by about $7.4 billion in a day, to $154.7 billion. Nvidia shares fell by 5.5% amid an investigation into the circumstances of Huang's relationship with a woman.
