TSMC's founder Morris Chang asked Nvidia's Jensen Huang to consider becoming the chief executive of the Taiwanese chip giant more than a decade ago, but was turned down in just 10 minutes, Chang says in a new volume of autobiography.

Morris Chang, the founder of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), has disclosed in his newly published autobiography that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang declined an offer to lead the Taiwanese chip giant over a decade ago.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said he promised his wife Lori that he'd be CEO by 30 to ensure she'd eventually marry him.
