Abstract:

According to news on October 14, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang recalled his experience during his visit to China in May this year in a program released by the well-known podcast host Lex Fridman on October 13. He said he received a warm welcome on the streets of Beijing, causing crowds to gather wherever he went, and even the restaurants he visited quickly adopted him as a promotional sign.


When talking about his trip to China, Huang Jen-Hsun lamented: "My God, my trip to China was a complete mess. Did you see those scenes? I went to the center of Beijing, and it suddenly became very lively and completely chaotic."

He later joked that every restaurant he ate at regarded him as a "spokesman." "They acted really fast. It only took about half an hour for me to appear online and become a promotional sign for every restaurant."

On May 15 this year, Huang Renxun visited Nanluoguxiang and other places during his stay in Beijing, and tasted old Beijing fried noodles, bean juice and other specialties. Relevant videos and photos quickly spread on social media, attracting widespread attention.

According to previous reports, Huang Renxun once tasted fried noodles at No. 69 Zhajiang Noodle Shop in Beijing Fangzhuangchang and repeatedly praised them as "delicious". As word of Huang's visit spread, the restaurant became popular with consumers and later launched a special menu inspired by his iconic leather jacket image.
