  "account": "Megaspeed, a cloud computing provider based in Singapore, is suspected of bringing Nvidia's advanced AI processors to Chinese companies. The company, previously known as 7Road International, changed its name to Megaspeed in 2023 after Alice Huang joined the firm. Alice's younger sister, Huang Yu, is a founding shareholder of Shanghai Century Litong, a Chinese data center firm. According to The Information, Megaspeed used its Malaysian subsidiary, Speedmatrix, to receive shipments of Nvidia chips between June 2024 and June 2025. These shipments, which are subject to U.S. restrictions on sales to China, were used to power data centers built by Shanghai Century Litong, which then provides AI computing capacity to Chinese tech giants like Alibaba and Tencent. Singapore is investigating Megaspeed for \"suspected breaches of our domestic laws,\" but has not confirmed reports of investigating Alice Huang over the espionage allegations.",
  "summary": "Experts say the company’s actions show how Chinese firms rely on Southeast Asia to skirt U.S. trade controls.",
