What was said

"We just have to settle down here. Get a piece of land. And, that building will hold 4,000 people. So we'll hire another 3,000 people."

Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang says the company is planning a new building in Taiwan modelled on an existing Nvidia facility. He says it would hold about 4,000 people and that Nvidia would therefore hire another 3,000 staff on top of roughly 1,000 already in Taiwan, including supply chain and hardware engineering roles.
