Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang visited a Shanghai market on January 24th as part of his routine visit to mainland China before Lunar New Year. While at Jinde Market in Lujiazui, Huang purchased 65 yuan worth of snacks from Haohao Chestnuts King. He then gave the shop owner, surnamed Xu, a traditional "lai see" (red envelope) containing 600 yuan. The shop owner reportedly did not recognize Huang, despite his recent popularity on Chinese social media for his approachable behavior. Huang's visit included buying chestnuts and candied hawthorns, with payment handled by an employee using a QR code. The lai see was signed by Huang with his English name.
