Summary of article:
Rumors of Huang Renxun’s extramarital affairs and suspected Chinese espionage triggered political attacks and defenses of Huida’s settlement in Beishike; The blue camp urged the incident not to be used for electoral manipulation, while the green camp said that attention should be paid to the national security risks of key technologies.
NVIDIAHuida (also known as Nvidia) CEOJen-Hsun Huang She admitted cheating and the affair partner was accused by the American media of being a spy for mainland China. Since the Huida Overseas Headquarters fell deeply in love, the scandal broke just before the county mayor election and became a hot topic in Taipei’s political circles. Taipei Mayor Chiang Wannan was asked yesterday whether this would affect the foreign headquarters’ hold on Besheke. Jiang said that at present he has not received relevant information.
This newspaper reported from the United Daily News that because Huang Renxun confessed to having an extramarital affair with a woman suspected of being a mainland spy, many Green Camp supporters in the Internet community began to criticize Jiang Wannan. The media asked Jiang yesterday, and there was a drop of bitterness on the Internet, “Chiang Wannan cannot mention Huida for political achievements in the future. Huang Renxun is a passerby of the Communist Party of China. Huang Renxun was harmed by Jiang Wannan. The mayor’s wife’s friend led Huida. Is this collusion spying?”
In response, Jiang Wannan responded that as the election approached, more and more untrue comments emerged. However, he continued to update all citizens and friends about his political achievements step by step over the years. The citizens were greatly affected. Be it investment promotion, construction of MRT, construction of social housing etc., he kept winning the recognition of citizens step by step.
Kuomintang legislator Luo Zhiqiang said that both the United States and Taiwan should attach great importance to the security of chips. Whatever the facts, action should be taken according to the facts. But to be honest, if Jiang Wannan is also blamed on the issue of Huang Renxun’s scandal on the Internet, you will know why there are so many “sunfish” in the “sea stream”, and it doesn’t matter if you replace a few more fish.
According to the Taipei China Times, Fan Yun, secretary-general of the Legislative Yuan caucus of the Democratic Progressive Party, said yesterday that Huang Jen-hsun has acknowledged his private behavior and publicly explained and apologized. National security concerns are a very serious public issue. This shows that the risks of China’s intelligence collection on key technologies and key industries deserve the continued attention of countries including Taiwan.
Fan Yun emphasized that Huida’s board of directors has launched an independent investigation into the matter, and the facts still need to be clarified. The Democratic Progressive Party supports the investigation in accordance with the law and lets the evidence speak for itself, and believes that Taiwan’s competent authorities should continue to monitor the situation to ensure that national security and key technologies are fully protected.
Kuomintang lawmaker Lai Shibao said Huang Renxun is a leading figure in the global technology industry and owns about 3.6% of Huida’s shares. US President Trump and the business community have expressed support for Huang Renxun. At present there is no possibility that Huang will be replaced. If the green camp deliberately promotes the news that Huida’s investment is affected to attack Jiang Wannan, it may ultimately harm the entire Taiwan technology industry.
Lai Shibao also criticized that Fan Yun is merely “a common man speaking in common man’s language”. Taiwan has attached great importance to the “non-red supply chain” and is considered the “best” in the world. If it is deemed necessary to further prevent entry to the mainland, please ask the government to clearly establish rules and not use political language to beat everyone with a pole and ban everyone from doing business with the mainland.
