Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang shares story about his lifelong love for night markets｜Taiwan News

Описание: Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has been talking a lot about the tech world throughout his trip to Taiwan, but during a recent speech Huang took a tangy tangent: he has a love for night markets that goes back to when he was 4 years old and still living in Taiwan. Huang even let the audience know about his fondness for a particular fruit vendor in Tonghua Night Market.

The vendor presents her fruits. During a recent speech, Nvidia founder Jensen Huang lauded high praise upon this fruit stand, which has now earned the nickname of the “AI Fruit Stall.” Some have joked the stand should go public.

Huang has visited Taiwan two years in a row, and both times he’s frequented Tonghua Night Market, which is the location of a fruit vendor who has become like a good friend to the AI tech guru. Huang heaped praise upon her during a speech on Sunday.

Tonghua Night Market is really good because there’s a lady; she’s been working there for 43 years. She’s the fruit lady. Go find her. OK? Fantastic, absolutely awesome, super tasty.

Who would’ve thought? I’m just so happy because I never would’ve guessed he’d tell everybody about me. Every time he comes he speaks to me in Taiwanese. Maybe it’s that when he’s abroad he doesn’t get much of a chance to eat fruit like this, and so that’s why he thinks Taiwan’s fruit is super delicious.

The vendor’s son says that the day Huang mentioned the fruit stand it was raining, so they hadn’t set up the fruit stand. Back home, they turned on the TV and were surprised to find Huang mentioning them. Recently, Huang even got tech billionaires Morris Chang and Barry Lam to join him on a trip to Ningxia Night Market. Huang’s love for night markets goes all the way back to his childhood.

I think I was 4 and a half years old. I used to love going to the night market because I just love watching people. My parents used to take us to the night market, where we’d get oyster egg omelets. My face, you guys might see that I have a large scar on my face. My face was cut because somebody was washing their knife, and I was a little kid; it’s so deep because of that. I still love going to the night market.

With his fondness for night markets and snacking on late night delights, it seems like Jensen Huang has claimed the throne of Taiwan’s biggest CEO foodie.
