Doors stayed closed in China
Citing people familiar with the matter, the Financial Times reports that Jensen Huang spent years trying to build ties with China but struggled to reach the decision-makers who shaped Nvidia's fate there.
Resignation and scandal backdrop
Huang resigned as Nvidia's chief executive on Thursday. The report also references his admitted affair with former Megaspeed executive Alice Huang, whom US officials suspect of espionage.
Why it matters
Nvidia's position in China is one of the company's most sensitive issues, tied to export restrictions and smuggling allegations. Huang's exit adds further uncertainty to that equation.
Limited detail
The report does not specify which officials Huang failed to reach or when. The claim therefore rests on a single newspaper report.
