The company based in Singapore center of the scandal who brought down Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said Sunday that suspected Chinese spy Alice Huang left the company in 2025. The company also denied any wrongdoing, saying it was “conducting legitimate and lawful business.”
In a statement to CBS News, Megaspeed International said Alice Huang, also known as Huang Le, left the company in August 2025 and has no current role. He has not commented on allegations that Alice Huang is a suspected Chinese spy.
“Megaspeed does not comment on Ms. Huang’s personal and private affairs,” the company’s statement said.
Alice Huang was an executive at Megaspeed and is the woman with whom Jensen Huang was having an affair. She is suspected by American intelligence of being an asset for Chinese Ministry of State Securitywhich China denies. Jensen Huang resigned as CEO of Nvidia last week.
US investigators say Alice Huang used industry contacts and a series of front companies to access 240,000 chips banned from export to China.

Over the past three years, Megaspeed has been one of Nvidia’s biggest foreign customers, purchasing nearly $5 billion worth of AI chips and advanced hardware, The New York Times first reported.
Now the company, which began as an offshoot of a China-based gaming company and became a juggernaut with access to Nvidia chips, is under investigation in the United States and Singapore for allegedly bringing restricted Nvidia AI computer chips into China.
In a statement to CBS News on Sunday, the company said recent claims about its business, supply chain and global operations “are not supported by verifiable evidence.”
“Megaspeed designs and maintains its global operational and supply chain control frameworks to comply with all applicable laws and regulatory regimes, including U.S. export control requirements and local jurisdiction rules in each market in which we operate,” it said.

President Trump said last week that the FBI was investigating romantic and business ties between Jensen Huang and Alice Huang, who are not related.
CBS News reported Singaporean authorities seized Alice Huang’s June 2025 passport on Friday as they tried to get the U.S. government to support their investigation into the alleged smuggling of Nvidia chips to China, according to a source familiar with the matter.
The source added that the Singapore government did not receive any significant aid from Washington at the time.
