WASHINGTON (The Thursday Times) — Amriki Sadr Donald Trump ne Jumeraat ko kaha ke Apple ke executive chairman Tim Cook ko Nvidia ka chief executive banna chahiye. Yeh baat unhon ne us ke chand ghante baad kahi jab Jensen Huang ne isteefa de diya, jinhon ne is chip saaz company ki buniyad rakhi thi.
Trump ne apne social media platform par likha: "Ab jab ke Nvidia ke CEO Jensen Huang, jinhon ne shandaar kaam kiya hai, mustafi ho gaye hain, unki jagah lene wala sirf aik hi shakhs hai — Apple ke Tim Cook. Aik legend ki jagah aik legend!"
Yeh faisla Nvidia ke board ko karna hai, jis ne chief financial officer Colette Kress ko aboori chief executive muqarrar kiya hai aur mustaqil jaanasheen ki talaash shuru kar di hai, jis mein company ke andar aur bahar ke umeedwaron par ghaur hoga. Board ne Synopsys ke sabiq chief executive Harvey Jones ko company ka pehla board chairman bhi muqarrar kiya hai.
Apple aur Cook ne sahafiyon ki janib se tabsire ki darkhwaston ka fauri jawab nahin diya, aur Nvidia ne yeh nahin bataya ke aaya Cook zer-e-ghaur hain.
Chairman, chief executive nahin
Cook September mein Apple ke chief executive ke taur par 15 saal guzarne ke baad sabakdosh hue aur yeh zimmedari company ke hardware engineering ke sabiq sarbarah John Ternus ko saunp di. Woh Apple ke board ke executive chairman ke taur par barqarar hain.
Cook ke Trump se qareebi taalluqaat rahe hain. Guzishta saal Cook ne Sadr ko Amrica mein bani aik takhti pesh ki thi jo 24 qeeraat sone ke stand par nasb thi, yeh Apple ke American Manufacturing Program ki yaadgaar thi, jab company ne Amrica mein mazeed 100 arab dollar ki sarmaya kaari ka waada kiya tha. Cook aur Huang dono September mein Cheen ke Sadr Xi Jinping ke aizaz mein White House ke sarkari ashaiye mein shareek hue thay.
Scandal par khamoshi
Trump ki post mein Huang ki tareef ki gayi aur un ilzamaat ka zikr nahin kiya gaya jin ki wajah se Nvidia mein unka 33 saala safar khatam hua. Huang ne un reports ke baad isteefa diya ke Amriki intelligence idaaron ke khayal mein unhein aik karobari khatoon Alice Huang se taalluq ke zariye Cheeni jasoosi ki koshish ka nishana banaya gaya, jin ka un se koi rishta nahin. Budh ko aik aur report mein kaha gaya ke unka Nvidia ki aik senior ohdedaar se bhi taalluq raha, aur board unhein hatane ki tayyari kar raha tha.
Peer ko Trump ne kaha tha ke unki Huang se baat hui, jinhon ne unhein bataya ke woh nahin jaante thay ke us khatoon par jasoos hone ka shuba hai. Unhon ne Huang ko "aik ba-izzat aadmi" qarar diya jinhon ne "hamare mulk ke liye shandaar kaam kiya hai". Cheen ki wazarat-e-kharija ne jasoosi ke ilzamaat ko be-buniyad qarar diya hai.
Aiwan-e-Numaindgan ki teen committeeyon ke Republican sarbarahon ne Huang se band kamre mein gawahi dene ka kaha hai, aur do Democrat senators, Elizabeth Warren aur Chris Coons ne Wazir-e-Tijarat Howard Lutnick ko khat likh kar mutaliba kiya hai ke Cheen ke saath Nvidia ke muamlaat ka record mehfooz rakha jaye.
Nvidia 17 November ko apni teesri sehmahi ke nataij jaari karegi, jo aboori qiyadat ke tehat iske pehle nataij honge. Beijing ne Jumeraat ko kaha ke woh agle hafte Shenzhen mein hone wale sarbarahi ijlas mein Trump, Xi aur Putin ki mulaqat ke baare mein raabte mein hai, aur Washington se kaha ke woh uske baqaul man-gharat jasoosi kahaniyan band kare.
