The indictment of Super Micro's co-founder, Yih-Shyan 'Wally' Liaw, and Ruei-Tsang 'Steven' Chang, general manager of the Taiwan office, and Ting-Wei 'Willy' Sun, a contractor described as a 'fixer', are accused of orchestrating a $2.5 billion diversion of servers from the US to China via a front company in Southeast Asia. The servers, which contain Nvidia’s most advanced AI accelerator chips, were already repackaged into unmarked boxes and shipped to China. The indictment reveals that during a six-week period in 2025, at least $510 million of hardware made the journey. The company, Super Micro, has not been named as a defendant and terminated its relationship with Sun. The charges include conspiracy to violate the Export Controls Reform Act, conspiracy to smuggle goods from the United States, and conspiracy to defraud the government.
