00:01Tech billionaire Jensen Hwan and U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik have been summoned to
00:07testify before U.S. lawmakers over the unfolding Nvidia scandal. Hwan resigned as CEO of the
00:15chipmaker on Thursday after recent reports revealed details of at least two extramarital
00:21affairs, including one with an alleged Chinese spy. Congress is now calling for more clarity
00:27on the situation and what the Trump administration may have known of it. Hwan has also been summoned
00:33to appear before the House Committees on Foreign Affairs, Intelligence and China. The New York Times
00:39reported in October that U.S. intelligence officials had previously determined that a senior Chinese
00:45executive was reportedly being monitored over possibly steering AI chips to China. China has
00:52pushed back at the spy plot allegations, calling them purely unsubstantiated. One Chinese official
00:58said that the U.S. should stop fabricating Chinese spy narratives as a pretext for imposing technology
01:05restrictions.
