Jensen Huang Signs Banknotes from Fan's Wallet: "A Priceless Item"

Hands Out Autographed Banknotes to Fans After Taiwan Event

Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, made the crowd burst into laughter with a joke saying, "I have no money," while mingling with fans after an event in Taiwan.

According to Hong Kong media outlet Phoenix Weekly and others on June 3 (local time), CEO Huang attended the "2026 Computex" event held in Taipei, Taiwan, the previous day. After the event, he spent time interacting with fans and readily agreed when one fan asked him to sign their wallet.

After opening the fan's wallet, CEO Huang remarked, "The wallet is empty." After finishing the autograph, he turned to those nearby and joked, "There isn't a single bill in this person's wallet. If you're looking for a wealthy husband, you'd better avoid this guy," drawing laughter from the crowd.

When a reporter from Hong Kong IT media outlet HKEPC also asked for an autograph, CEO Huang signed not on the outside of the wallet but directly on several Taiwan dollar banknotes found inside. He went on to sign multiple 1,000 Taiwan dollar bills (approximately 49,000 won each) from the reporter’s wallet and handed them out to female event assistants. After giving away all the cash in the wallet, he personally gave the reporter 10,000 Taiwan dollars (about 490,000 won).

The reporter, surprised by the unexpected gift from CEO Huang, later recalled, "Signing the first two or three bills was okay, but after that, I started sweating. I just hoped he would leave me enough money to take a taxi home."

The reporter continued, "Originally, there were 7,700 Taiwan dollars (about 370,000 won) in my wallet, but CEO Huang returned an even larger amount. In the end, I made a profit of 2,300 Taiwan dollars (about 110,000 won)." CEO Huang praised the reporter, saying, "He's truly a generous and wonderful person."

CEO Huang's autograph is regarded in Greater China not only as simple fan service but also as a symbol of wealth and success. Items bearing his signature are often traded at high prices on the secondhand market.

The reporter, now in possession of the banknotes signed by CEO Huang, said, "I'm receiving hundreds of messages from people wanting to buy these bills. These banknotes are priceless and incredibly precious to me."
