Per The Information: Alice Huang (no relation), allegedly romantically linked to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, built a buying network across China and Singapore with her husband and sister. Her firm Shanghai Century Litong, founded June 2023, won preferred cloud partner status and priority chip access by October. She reportedly used Nvidia and distributor ties to move 240K H100/H200 and some A100 chips into China, serving Alibaba, Tencent and smaller labs; some flowed via Singapore's Megaspeed, now under US investigation.
