China dismisses US report of suspected spy targeting Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang as ‘groundless’
Megaspeed has previously come under US scrutiny over suspicions that the company was helping China circumvent US export controls on chips
“The relevant report is based on groundless speculation and [is] purely aimed at smearing and slandering China,” Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun told a regular media briefing in Beijing.
The pushback came after US outlet The New York Times reported on Thursday that US intelligence agencies had identified a Chinese businesswoman, Alice Huang, also known as Huang Le, as a suspected Chinese asset who had approached and tried to develop a close business relationship with the Nvidia chief.
