TSMC chairman Mark Liu’s upcoming retirement in 2024 has led investment experts to suggest that the semiconductor giant should slow down the progress of its new manufacturing facility in the United States. Industry analyst Jonah Cheng believes that TSMC’s policy direction will remain unchanged under the leadership of chief executive C.C. Wei, who is expected to succeed Liu as chairman. Cheng also proposes maintaining a dual leadership structure to cultivate successors from various backgrounds. Speculation suggests that Liu’s retirement may be linked to potential investment challenges in the company’s U.S. expansion. In response to these challenges, Cheng recommends a deceleration in the construction of TSMC’s second U.S. plant. He also highlights the need to assess the current downturn in the car market and economic outlook before proceeding with the German plant focused on automotive applications. Cheng suggests that the Japanese facility could be an optimal choice due to labor and power shortages in Taiwan, as well as cultural similarities and strong government support from Japan. TSMC’s primary obstacle, according to Cheng, is maintaining its leadership position in the semiconductor industry, especially after surpassing Intel. Additionally, the cyclical nature of the industry and the potential opportunities presented by the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) applications pose further challenges for the company.

The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has announced that its current CEO, C.C. Wei, is set to be nominated as the next chairman in the June 2024 board election. This comes after the current chairman, Mark Liu, revealed that he will not seek re-nomination and plans to retire after next year’s shareholder meeting. Liu, who joined TSMC in 1993, became chairman in June 2018 following the retirement of company founder Morris Chang. He expressed his desire to continue making a difference in the semiconductor industry using his decades of experience while also spending more time with his family. Despite varied opinions on Liu’s retirement, there is a consensus that TSMC’s stable corporate governance is unlikely to be affected in terms of operations and stock performance.

Mark Liu, Chairman of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), will step down after the next shareholders’ meeting. C.C. Wei, currently the vice chairman, has been recommended to succeed Liu as the new chairman. Liu, who took over in 2018, focused on solidifying corporate governance and competitiveness during his tenure. He plans to continue contributing his semiconductor expertise in different capacities after retirement. Liu expresses gratitude for his collaboration with TSMC and intends to spend more time with his family. He remains confident in TSMC’s future performance and is committed to bolstering corporate governance until his term’s end.

蘋果在iPhone 15全系列首度改用USB-C接孔，而官方也同步為無線藍牙耳機AirPods Pro 2推出USB-C版本，近期外媒揭露有關下一代AirPods Pro 3的5大亮點，讓果迷能搶先一窺其可能的升級亮點。 根據外媒《MacRumors》報導，蘋果內部已開始進行AirPods Pro 3的開發，不過最快預計要到2025年才會推出，儘管距離發表還有超過1年的時間，但近期已有不少相關爆料出現，因此《MacRumors》也整理出AirPods Pro 3最可能出現的5大升級亮點。 1. 煥然一新的外觀設計： 由於AirPods Pro 3傳出將有新功能加入，而為了因應這些新功能，官方預計將會針對耳塞、耳機外殼等進行重新設計，不過具體的相關細節仍是未知數。 2. 更好的音質效果： 有消息指出AirPods Pro 3將進一步提升音質效果，並改善現有的主動降噪功能，由於蘋果首款頭戴式裝置Vision Pro將在明年上市，AirPods Pro 3的音質效果將會是官方強化的重點之一，搭配Vision Pro以提供更沉浸式的聆聽體驗。 3. 升級晶片： 目前AirPods Pro 2搭載的是H2晶片，而下一代的AirPods Pro 3預計將升級為H3晶片，可望帶來更優異的運算處理效能，以對應可能增加的健康相關功能。 4. 聽力健康改善 健康一直是蘋果相當重視的領域，目前官方正為AirPods系列開發多項聽力健康功能，而AirPods Pro 3可望透過其搭載的感測器與相關技術，帶來更多的「聽力健康」應用；《彭博社》記者Mark Gurman指出，蘋果正在研究讓AirPods進一步增強聽力的功能，目的或許是為了讓AirPods能夠取代助聽器。 5. 體溫監測： 蘋果近年頻頻取得與體溫監測相關的專利，傳出官方已經開始測試將AirPods嵌入溫度偵測器，讓AirPods能夠偵測耳溫，畢竟從耳內量測體溫會比手腕溫度（Apple Watch）更加準確，甚至未來AirPods系列還有望搭載生物識別感知器，以實現監測心律、出汗量等更多功能。

Multiple municipalities in Taiwan, including Taipei, New Taipei, Keelung, Taoyuan, and Taichung, have announced the lifting of the ban on imported liquid eggs in school lunches, following a controversy over their use. The ban will be lifted starting from December 11, with the condition that only liquid eggs produced in December and carrying the Certified Agricultural Standards (CAS) mark can be used. CAS-certified liquid eggs, priced at approximately NT＄125 per kilogram, are 1.5 times more expensive than regular shell eggs but guarantee higher quality. Taichung Mayor Lu Shiow-Yen cited the resolution of the ＂egg shortage crisis＂ and strengthened regulation on liquid egg production as reasons for lifting the ban. School meal providers can now gradually reintroduce egg dishes that were previously removed from students’ menus. Former Agriculture Minister Chen Chi-chung expressed his view on the ban lift, emphasizing the importance of food safety in a Facebook post.
