Nvidia Corp. is negotiating with the U.S. government for permission to export its next-generation Blackwell artificial-intelligence processors to China, Fox News reported on Thursday. The discussions, confirmed in an interview with Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang, mark the company’s latest attempt to loosen Washington’s restrictions on the sale of cutting-edge chips to Chinese customers. To win approval, Nvidia has offered to give the federal government a share of revenue from any Blackwell chips sold in China, the Fox report said. While the size of the proposed payment was not disclosed, one source familiar with the talks cited a potential range of 30%-50% of profits. Huang told Fox that sales of the new processor in China could reach about $50 billion and expand by roughly 50% a year, underscoring the market’s importance to the chipmaker. The overture comes amid stringent U.S. export controls that bar the shipment of Nvidia’s most advanced semiconductors to China on national-security grounds. The Trump administration has previously suggested it might allow a scaled-down version of Blackwell, but no decision has been announced. Nvidia’s revenue-sharing proposal adds a novel twist to the debate over how—and whether—the company can serve one of its largest markets without running afoul of U.S. policy.
