Eight trips in two years. That is how often Alice Huang, the Chinese woman accused of spying for Beijing during an affair with Nvidia founder Jensen Huang, entered Taiwan, according to a Taiwanese government minister.

Speaking on Thursday, the minister, Chiu, said records show she visited three times in 2024 and five times in 2025. Add them up and you get eight visits in total, with the pace picking up in the second year.

Who is Alice Huang?

She is the woman at the centre of the allegation: that she spied for Beijing while having an affair with Jensen Huang, the founder of Nvidia, the company best known for the chips behind the AI boom. It is an accusation, and the figures given on Thursday deal only with her travel to Taiwan.

What do the Taiwan travel records show?

The numbers are simple. Three entries in 2024, five in 2025, eight across the two years. The minister cited them as coming from official records.

What the figures do not tell us is why she travelled or what she did on each trip. The details available so far cover how often she came, not what happened while she was there.

For now, the count is the concrete part of a story that otherwise rests on an allegation. It gives the claim a timeline of border crossings, even if it says nothing yet about what, if anything, she passed on or to whom.
