Singapore questioned Alice Huang over false import declarations, then dropped the case; here's where she went next

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had a close relationship with alleged Chinese spy Alice Huang. Alice had been under surveillance by US agencies. Jensen also admitted that he had an affair and was unfaithful to his wife. He said that he backs the investigation and is committed to "supporting America's national security." US intelligence assessments concluded that Alice had been recruited by China's Ministry of State Security (MSS). She was allegedly given the role of developing a close relationship with Jensen, and gathering information about Nvidia. It was reported that China wanted information about Nvidia's advanced AI chips and business strategy.

It remains unclear when Alice and Jensen had first met. It also remains uncertain how long their affair lasted.

Alice Huang and Megaspeed

US agencies believe that Alice Huang was a Megaspeed executive and a Chinese spy. She was assigned the role to feed information back to China. Megaspeed is a Singapore-based AI infrastructure company. According to reports, it had purchased $4.8 billion in Nvidia chips over the last two years.


Times reported that Megaspeed was renting computing power to Chinese companies. In 2024, a Commerce Department official visited Megaspeed's data center in Malaysia.

Alice Huang exploited her relationship with Jensen to reportedly funnel at least $7.5 billion worth of Nvidia chips into China, according to a new report.

According to The Information, the affair helped reroute and ship at least $7.5 billion worth of Nvidia AI chips to Chinese companies. These allegations had also brought renewed attention to Megaspeed, its Malaysian operations and Huang's business connections.

Singapore questioned Alice Huang

According to Seoul Economic Daily, the Singaporean authorities also investigated Megaspeed and summoned Alice Huang. This was done on suspicion of filing false import declarations. But, the probe was closed after lack of evidence. After this, Alice Huang had reportedly left for Shanghai.
