On Thursday, Huang met He Lifeng, the Chinese vice-premier in charge of US-China trade talks, a move Chinese media widely interpreted as a signal that the tech giant remained committed to the Chinese market.

The following day Shanghai mayor Gong Zheng welcomed Huang to the city and told him that Shanghai had a favourable business and industrial environment, according to the official municipal website.

It said Huang emphasised Nvidia’s ties to Shanghai, describing the city as one of the company’s key research and development hubs, and saying it was vital to Nvidia due to its market size, high-quality customer base and robust industry ecosystem.
