China’s foreign ministry has rejected allegations of Chinese intelligence involvement in a reported affair involving Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, describing the claims as an attempt to smear the country.

Xinhua reported, foreign ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said today (November 9th) that the allegation was “purely unsubstantiated” when asked about media reports that Nvidia’s board had opened an investigation into Huang. Guo added that Beijing had already responded to the issue the previous week.

The reports, published by *The New York Times* and the *Financial Times*, linked Huang to a Chinese citizen and technology executive. US officials have alleged that the woman was working for Chinese intelligence. Huang has acknowledged having an affair, according to the reports, but the intelligence allegations have not been substantiated publicly.

The Nvidia chief executive has been a prominent advocate for maintaining access to the Chinese market, amid US restrictions on exports of advanced AI chips to China.

The allegations come as Washington and Beijing remain at odds over access to advanced semiconductor technology, a key area of competition in the global AI industry.
