China has strongly reacted to the alleged spy operation involving Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, dismissing the claims as a smear campaign. Beijing rejected the allegations and accused those behind them of attempting to damage China’s image.

The controversy began after reports suggested that US intelligence agencies suspected Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore based company Megaspeed International, of having links to Chinese intelligence.

Reports also suggested that Alice developed a close personal relationship with Jensen Huang, raising concerns that she could have been attempting to gather information from the Nvidia chief. However, these allegations have not been independently established.

Meanwhile, China’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson rejected the allegations, describing them as an attempt to malign the country. Beijing maintained that the claims were baseless and opposed what it called attempts to create a negative image of China.

The controversy has drawn international attention as it involves one of the world’s most influential technology companies and its chief executive.

However, the alleged intelligence operation and any attempt to access confidential Nvidia information remain unproven.
