Huang win’s audience’s attention by taking to the stadium’s PA mic to thank fans for welcoming him and his family. These remarks were shared just before he threw the opening pitch.

In this regard Huang said: “I'm here because we have many great partners that I want to thank and also to enjoy Korean fried chicken. Nothing is better than chimaek (fried chicken with beer).”

Huang has met with prominent business tycoons and gaming industry figures. Earlier he threw out ceremonial first pitches for both the Chinese Professional Baseball League in Taiwan and Major League Baseball in the United States.

The Bears welcomed Huang and about 200 Nvidia employees with a banner outside the main gate that read: “Welcome Nvidia. Our Partnership-It All Starts Here.” The club also prepared gifts for the guests.”

The CEO of one of the most valuable technology companies is expected to watch the initial portion of the game before leaving for a dinner with SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won at a nearby fried chicken place to unwind.
