Beijing accused the United States on Thursday of invoking false claims about spying on the CEO of Nvidia in order to impose a technological “blockade” on China, following allegations that Jensen Huang was targeted in a spy plot on Beijing’s behalf.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said during a regular press briefing that “China’s technological progress is driven by independent innovation and open cooperation. The US side should stop fabricating such espionage narratives as a pretext for imposing a technological blockade.”
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang acknowledged that he had been involved in a romantic relationship, which reports say was with Alice Huang, a former Chinese executive at Singapore-based Megaspire, whom US officials believe worked for Chinese intelligence.
