NVIDIA CEO Huang Renxun Talks about Why He Likes to Wear Leather Clothes: That's the Idea of His Wife and Daughter

For Huang Renxun, the founder and CEO of NVIDIA, I believe most DIY players are familiar with his glorious deeds, and I believe many players can even recite them by heart. Huang Renxun is also known for his iconic speech style, always confidently walking on the podium wearing leather clothes. Due to his constant presence in leather clothes, he is also jokingly referred to as a leather swordsman.

In fact, at least in 2013, many players had already mocked Huang Renxun and his beloved leather jacket on the internet, which set him apart from the CEOs of most technology companies due to their distinctive attire. In 2016, Huang Renxun even started joking about it himself, introducing himself at an event and calling himself "the person in a leather jacket who repeated the matter three times". Recently, Huang Renxun gave an interview to the media and talked about why he always "only wears one piece of clothing".

Some speculate that Huang Renxun's approach was inspired by others, such as Steve Jobs, who always chose black turtlenecks with jeans. Huang Renxun denied the claim that he was a "trendsetter", stating that dressing in this way was the idea of his wife and daughter, who were responsible for their own attire and clothing selection. As for why leather clothing is used as a lasting style, Huang Renxun did not explain the reason behind it.

In the interview, Huang Renxun also talked about industry and technology topics, stating that NVIDIA will "become completely different" in the next two years. The reason behind this is the observation of the first "simultaneous transformation of two technologies" in 60 years, which is to accelerate the development of computing to replace general computing and artificial intelligence (AI). Huang Renxun believes that the synergy of the two technologies will become a catalyst for significant and sustained technological advancements, and asserts that computing will "progress one million times every 10 years".

At the end of the interview, Huang Renxun lamented that creating NVIDIA was ten thousand times more difficult than he had imagined.
