Megaspeed與澳洲鄉間商店的關聯,為輝達(Nvidia)醜聞提出新疑問
湯姆・哈爾斯與梅拉妮・伯頓報導By Tom Hals and Melanie Burton
威明頓,德拉瓦州/墨爾本,11月12日(路透社)——一家新加坡公司處於席捲輝達(Nvidia)執行長醜聞的核心。該公司在美國、澳洲和其他國家註冊關係企業,而登記資料中列名的一名29歲男子,將自己的地址填為墨爾本郊外一座地方城鎮裡的報攤兼彩券零售店。WILMINGTON, Delaware/MELBOURNE, Nov 12 (Reuters) - The Singapore company at the center of the scandal that has engulfed Nvidia's CEO has registered affiliates in the United States, Australia and other countries with a 29-year-old who listed his address as a newsagent and lottery retailer in a regional town outside Melbourne.
此前有報導指出,輝達執行長黃仁勳(Jensen Huang)曾與中國女商人黃愛麗絲(Alice Huang)關係密切。她是這家總部位於新加坡的雲端運算公司Megaspeed International的控股股東,美國情報官員認為她為北京從事間諜活動。報導曝光後,Megaspeed International成為外界關注焦點。Megaspeed International has been in the spotlight following reports that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had been involved in a close relationship with Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang, a controlling shareholder of the Singapore-based cloud-computing company, who US intelligence officials believed was spying for Beijing.
黃仁勳週日承認自己對妻子不忠,但未說明這段關係的細節;北京則稱間諜指控是「毫無根據的指控、誹謗和抹黑」。路透社無法聯繫上黃愛麗絲取得回應。Jensen Huang admitted on Sunday he had been unfaithful to his wife, but gave no details about the relationship, while Beijing has called the spying claim "a groundless accusation, slander and a smear." Alice Huang could not be reached for comment.
Megaspeed International向美國德拉瓦州以及澳洲證券投資委員會提交的文件顯示,這些關係企業成立於2024年。兩份文件均將康凱(Kai Kang)列為唯一公司主管,職稱為董事或總裁。澳洲申報文件還顯示,康出生於上海,並將位於新加坡的母公司列為該公司的股東。Megaspeed International filed papers in the US state of Delaware and with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission showing that the affiliates were created in 2024. Both filings list Kai Kang as the sole company officer, either as director or president. Kang was born in Shanghai, according to the Australian filing, which also lists the Singapore-based parent as the company's stockholder.
路透社查核馬來西亞、印尼和泰國的公司登記資料後發現,康也登記為Megaspeed在這些國家子公司的董事。Kang is also registered as director in Megaspeed's Malaysian, Indonesian and Thai units, according to checks by Reuters of company registrations in those countries.
路透社無法聯繫上康,因此前往關係企業申報文件所提供的住址——位於維多利亞州西摩的一家小店,該地在墨爾本以北約一小時車程。Reuters was unable to contact Kang so visited the home address that had been provided on the filings for the affiliates - a small store in Seymour, Victoria, about an hour's drive north of Melbourne.
這家名為Seymour News的報攤位於一條主要街道的中段,街上有家居用品店和咖啡館。週四,當地居民陸續進出,有人來核對彩券,也有人購買園藝雜誌或給孫輩的書。The newsagency, called Seymour News, lies midway down a main street fronted by homeware stores and cafes. On Thursday, there was a revolving parade of locals, popping in to check their lottery tickets and buying gardening magazines or books for their grandchildren.
路透社與一名女子交談,她表示自己是康的母親,經營這門生意約16年。這名不願透露姓名的女子說,康沒有在店裡工作,目前人在上海。Reuters spoke with a woman who said she was Kang’s mother and had run the business for about 16 years. The woman, who did not want to give her name, said Kang did not work in the shop and was based in Shanghai.
她說:「他在這裡沒有任何生意。」她並補充說,康已在上海大學完成碩士學位。“He doesn’t have any business here,” she said, adding that Kang had completed his master's degree at Shanghai University.
她說,康最近一次返澳探望父母是在8月和9月,為了躲避上海的夏季酷暑。He was most recently back visiting his parents in August and September to escape the summer heat of Shanghai, she said.
她說,她知道輝達和Megaspeed,但表示她兒子與新加坡那家公司沒有任何關係。She said she knew about Nvidia and Megaspeed, but said her son had nothing to do with the company in Singapore.
除了他的姓名列為Megaspeed董事之外,澳洲公司監管機關沒有任何其他康從事商業往來的紀錄。There is no other record of any business dealings by Kang with the Australian corporate regulator, other than his name as the director of Megaspeed.
Megaspeed Australia的營業地址列為雪梨高級商業區一棟建築群的10樓。Megaspeed Australia's business address is listed as the 10th floor of a building complex in Sydney's upmarket business district.
該樓層一名接待人員表示,這是虛擬辦公室,Megaspeed將其用作行政用途地址。A concierge on the floor said it was a virtual office and Megaspeed used it as an address for administrative purposes.
Megaspeed最早在一年前引起關注,當時《紐約時報》報導,美國正在調查該公司是否協助中國客戶取得受華府出口管制限制的輝達先進晶片。Megaspeed first attracted attention a year ago when the New York Times reported it was under US investigation over whether it was helping Chinese customers obtain advanced Nvidia chips subject to Washington's export controls.
Megaspeed在其網站上表示,該公司是亞太地區的Nvidia雲端合作夥伴,並提供使用Nvidia的GB200 NVL72和HGX H100系統的管道。On its website, Megaspeed says it is an Nvidia Cloud Partner in the Asia-Pacific region and offers access to the Nvidia's GB200 NVL72 and HGX H100 systems.
去年10月,新加坡警方表示,在一名美國參議員要求商務部調查Megaspeed是否轉移輝達晶片後,警方正就「涉嫌違反我國國內法律」調查Megaspeed。Last October, Singapore police said they were investigating Megaspeed over "suspected breaches of our domestic laws" after a US senator requested the Commerce Department to investigate whether Megaspeed had diverted Nvidia chips.
路透社無法立即確認是否有任何澳洲主管機關正在調查該公司。澳洲安全情報組織表示,該組織不會確認或評論調查。Reuters could not immediately determine whether any Australian authorities were looking into the firm. The Australian Security Intelligence Organisation said it does not confirm or comment on investigations.
