Trump sympathizes with Huang as Nvidia’s board appoint Kress

2026-11-13

If you think you are having a bad week, just know that Jensen Huang has it worse. The week began with him as rockstar CEO of one of the world’s largest tech companies and is ending with his title being stripped of him. After 33 years of running the company, it seems that a string of extramarital affairs have pushed him off the pedestal. CFO Colette Kress has stepped in as interim-CEO, she has been at Nvidia for 13 years and helped its revenue multiply 50 times. We are yet to see how the aftermath of this will shape Nvidia’s future and stability.

Nvidia CEO, Jensen Huang and his extramarital affairs have taken the world by storm, so much so that President Donald Trump has spoken out as well.

Donald Trump
US President
The big thing is, was the woman a spy? And I don’t know if that’s been determined yet. But, if the woman was a spy, yes, if the woman was not a spy, perhaps it would be different.

Just a month prior, Huang received the National Medal of Science at The White House by President Trump, who believes this extramarital affair has wrecked Huang’s career and was saddened to see it happen.

Donald Trump
US President
I can tell you this; somehow he will end up on his feet. I mean, I know him, I know him pretty well. I always thought of him as a fine man and he is… I spoke to him yesterday, he is going through hell.

Huang’s previous interview with Bloomberg seemed to be a self-fulfilling prophecy, it’s as if he knew then what was to come.

Jensen Huang
Former Nvidia CEO
Just as I can be fired, the next CEO has to be hired. I like that we can’t be overly complacent about our position inside a company. And that we can’t take it for granted. And you’re always vulnerable.

At the moment, it seems that Nvidia’s CFO, Colette Kress is serving as interim CEO. However, with Huang’s departure, it seems that Kress will have big shoes to fill.

Voice of financial expert
Reporting on Jensen Huang
He is a king maker of AI, and to lose the king creates a lot of instability. And so you know there’s going to be a big shift in the industry as well as Nvidia itself, it’s going to have to find a new leader, so you know it’s going to be hard.

CNN Anchor
Reporting on Jensen Huang
How do you replace someone of this caliber?

Richard Quest
CNN Business Editor-at-Large
You don’t. What you can hope is that you put in place, somebody who doesn’t do any harm or damage to the company?

Huang had not designated a successor. This strategy has left the board scrambling to keep investor confidence and find a suitable person to carry the legacy forward.

Richard Quest
CNN Business Editor-at-Large
I think that’s a strategy that most people would disagree with, and has been found now to be wanting.

Mohamed El-Arian
Economist
This is a company with 40,000 people, talented. It has contracts; it has production growing, so it doesn’t get derailed immediately.

Interim-CEO Kress has emphasized in a press release that Nvidia’s success is rooted in its talent and they will continue to build on the foundation laid by Huang. We are yet to see how the aftershocks of this week will affect the company’s global standing.

黃仁勳請辭輝達CEO 財務長克瑞斯接臨時執行長

2026-11-13

經營輝達33年的創辦人黃仁勳，捲入一連串婚外情風波後，宣布辭去執行長、總裁及董事職務，由財務長克瑞斯接任臨時執行長一職。克瑞斯2013年加入輝達，見證過去13年來輝達營收成長超過50倍，但市場對沒有黃仁勳的輝達，與缺乏接班人的公司組織架構，長期仍充滿擔憂。

輝達創辦人黃仁勳陷入疑似女間諜桃色風波，掀起各界一片譁然，如今黯然宣布下台不僅震撼全球，美國總統川普也再次出來說話了。

[[美國總統川普]]
“關鍵在於那名女子是不是間諜，我不知道這個問題是否已經確定，但如果她是間諜，那當然是這樣，如果她不是間諜，情況或許就不同了”

黃仁勳10月才在白宮獲得川普頒發的美國國家科學獎章，卻因為外遇重挫職涯，川普表示，看到這種事發生，心裡相當難過。

[[美國總統川普]]
“我可以告訴你，他最後一定能度過難關，我很了解他，我一直覺得他是個好人，我昨天還跟他聊過，他現在正經歷著人間煉獄”

回頭看黃仁勳過去的上節目的訪談片段，如今發生在自己身上，可說是一語成讖。

[[前輝達執行長黃仁勳 (10.14)]]
“如同我可以被開除一樣，下一任執行長也必須要招聘，我們不能對自己在公司裡的地位過於自滿，也不能把這一切視為理所當然，而且我們隨時都是脆弱的”

目前輝達先由財務長克瑞斯暫代臨時執行長，不過，黃仁勳離開輝達，接班人能否延續過去輝達的亮眼成績，備受關注。

[[聲源:金融專家]]
“他(黃仁勳)是AI造王者，沒了他會有很多不確定性，整個產業要找新的領導人很難”

[[CNN主播]]
“你要如何找到一位，能與他(黃仁勳)匹敵的接班人”

[[CNN評論員奎斯特]]
“答案很簡短，就是你辦不到，你只能期望能找一個，不會對公司造成任何傷害的人”

輝達董事會不僅面臨尋找接班人的壓力，也須重建投資者信心，這也讓黃仁勳過去不設接班人的策略引發爭議。

[[CNN評論員奎斯特]]
“我認為這項策略大多數人都不認同，如今也證明其存在缺失”

[[經濟學家埃里安]]
“但這是一家擁有4萬名優秀人才，手握合約且生產持續運作的企業，因此不會立即陷入混亂”

儘管克瑞斯在新聞稿中強調，輝達的核心競爭力來自人才，將與團隊延續黃仁勳奠定的基礎，但是否真能持續稱霸AI市場，仍有待觀察。

Music teacher facing criminal charges for fake credentials

An adjunct instructor who taught at an award-winning elementary school music program in Tainan for 13 years was recently reported on suspicion of forging a diploma from Taipei National University of the Arts. The school sent an inquiry to the university for clarification, and was told they have no record of the individual on file. When confronted later that day, the teacher admitted to forging the diploma and promptly resigned. Given that the deception lasted for over a decade, city education officials have ordered a comprehensive audit of the faculty and have filed a criminal forgery complaint with prosecutors.

This elementary school music program in Tainan has many awards to its name, making its recent discovery of fraud all the more shocking. This university diploma looks genuine, but was found to have been forged by a teacher at the school.

School staffer
Discovered diploma fraud
We immediately called the registrar at Taipei National University of the Arts to verify it. After three days, they told us there was no student record under that name.

After receiving a tipoff in late September, the school contacted TNUA, which confirmed the diploma to be false. When confronted, the teacher confessed immediately and resigned. He said that since Taiwan at the time would not recognize his degree from China’s Xinghai Conservatory of Music in Guangzhou, he forged the credentials to get a job. Although he said he was willing to return all compensation, given his 13-year tenure, the city’s Bureau of Education intervened.

Chien Wen-ta
Tainan Bureau of Education official
We’ve ordered the school to conduct a comprehensive audit of hiring records, academic credentials, and hourly wage disbursements, and to retain all relevant evidence. As for the alleged document forgery, a criminal complaint has been filed with prosecutors.

Colleagues who have worked alongside the teacher for years were shocked at the revelation, saying nothing about his teaching had ever raised suspicion. Parents were also in disbelief.

- We reviewed it.
- So you couldn’t tell that the diploma was fake?
- No. It had a serial number, along with his ID number on top and his date of birth.

Voice of a student’s parent
Shocked at fraud revelation
We only experienced his hard work and all his positive qualities. But since he told such a big lie, it ends up erasing all the good that came before it.

A single fake diploma sustained this deception for over a decade. In response, the school has initiated a comprehensive audit of faculty credentials and has retained legal counsel to determine all compensation disbursed to the teacher in preparation for a lawsuit. In the meantime, two teachers with verified master’s degrees have been brought in to take over the affected classes.

‘I worried you had a fever’ grabber unfazed when confronted by pharmacist

An 87-year-old man is accused of making an unwanted move at a pharmacy in Miaoli, suddenly grabbing a female employee by both hands. The woman was left feeling extremely uncomfortable. But things took an even stranger turn the following day, when the two crossed paths on the street. She confronted him, demanding to know why he had grabbed her hands. He claimed he was simply checking whether she had a fever. The bizarre excuse left the woman furious, prompting her to call the police. Let’s hear more.

- Do you think that was OK? Grabbing my hand?
I was very uncomfortable.
- I can’t hold your hand?
- You grabbed my hands!
Who gave you the right?
You think that was OK?
- I worried you had a fever.
- Even if I did, there was no need to touch,
and in any case, you shouldn’t worry, I work at a pharmacy!
- Called the cops. He touched me!
He says he was right to touch me.
That it’s OK that he touched me.
He grabbed my hands.

Pharmacist
Was touched by elderly man
It was not OK. He regularly says things, like “I’ll miss you” and so on. I thought, whatever, I’ll just ignore him. But yesterday he actually touched me. If I let it slide, he would think it’s no biggie, and he might try to touch me somewhere else next time.

Ku Ching-wen
Police officer
Police officers intervened. After reviewing the footage provided, it was determined that Mr. Fan had taken advantage of a moment when the pharmacist wasn’t looking to grab her hands, which made her uncomfortable.

The pharmacist was so furious that she posted the footage online, warning others in the industry to be on their guard. She said the elderly man was a regular customer who had previously made inappropriate verbal advances. But this time, he crossed the line by actually putting his hands on her. Even afterward, the man appeared completely unfazed, saying he was almost 90 and that she could go to the police if she wanted. Police have since referred the case to the Miaoli District Prosecutors Office for investigation.
