CNBC AI News, July 14th – A photo of NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and Xiaomi founder Lei Jun surfaced on social media today, sparking intrigue about a potential collaboration or meeting of minds.
The image, showing both men smiling and standing shoulder-to-shoulder against a traditional brick wall backdrop, has fueled speculation within the tech industry. Given their attire, however, sources suggest the photo is likely not recent.
When contacted by media outlets for comment, NVIDIA responded with, “It wasn’t a photo released by us, and we are not clear about it.” This ambiguous statement adds another layer of mystery to the circulating image.
An inside source further revealed that the photo was taken by a passerby and that Lei Jun’s meeting constituted a client visit as part of a private, unpublicized trip. The exact timing of the photograph remains undisclosed.
This development comes ahead of Huang’s anticipated attendance at the China International Supply Chain Expo next Wednesday, July 16th, where he is scheduled to meet with top-level officials.
The relationship between Huang and Lei dates back to 2013 when they shared a stage at the Xiaomi 3 launch event.
During the launch, Huang promoted NVIDIA’s Tegra chips, even addressing the Chinese consumers entirely in Mandarin to demonstrate his understanding of the significant Chinese market, playfully referring to himself as a “Mi Fan”. The alliance highlighted a notable relationship between the two companies and their leaders.
