November 12 — Alice Huang, the Chinese businesswoman at the centre of the controversy involving Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang, has returned to China and is currently living in Beijing, according to a Bloomberg report citing people familiar with the matter.
One of the sources said Chinese security officials were aware of Alice Huang’s presence in the capital. It remains unclear when or why Huang travelled to Beijing or what she is currently doing there. Attempts to reach her for comment were unsuccessful, the report said. <Cite refs={[“turn400614search0″,”turn400614search2”]}/>
Huang, also known as Huang Le, has attracted international attention following reports that US intelligence officials suspected her of having links to Chinese intelligence. The allegations, which have not been independently verified by Reuters, have been denied by Beijing.

Her reported return to China comes as Nvidia’s board investigates whether its chief executive was targeted in a foreign intelligence operation. Jensen Huang has acknowledged being unfaithful to his wife but has not publicly identified the woman involved. He has said he would cooperate with the company’s investigation and reaffirmed his commitment to US national security.
Huang built her career in Chinese finance before moving into the artificial intelligence and cloud-computing sector. She held senior positions at Shanghai Hexi Investment Management and previously worked at CITIC Securities and HSBC, according to company records and financial industry material reviewed by Reuters.

In 2023, she became the controlling shareholder of Singapore-based Megaspeed International, a cloud-computing company that later emerged as a major buyer of Nvidia chips in Southeast Asia. Nvidia lists Megaspeed as an official cloud partner. <Cite refs={[“turn400614search1″,”turn400614news17”]}/>
Megaspeed has come under US scrutiny over suspicions that it helped Chinese customers gain access to advanced Nvidia processors subject to American export restrictions. Trade records reviewed by Reuters showed that the company’s Indonesian subsidiary imported Nvidia hardware, including H100 processors, between 2024 and 2026. However, the shipments to Indonesia do not by themselves establish any violation of US export controls. <Cite refs={[“turn400614search1″,”turn400614news17”]}/>
The controversy has intensified scrutiny of Nvidia’s business relationships in Asia and prompted US lawmakers to seek answers from Jensen Huang about what he knew of the alleged intelligence links and whether any sensitive information was exposed.
Nvidia has said it has no reason to believe that national security information or company trade secrets were compromised. Beijing has dismissed the espionage allegations as unfounded and accused Washington of using them to justify restrictions on China’s access to advanced technology.
