苹果公司周一宣布，蒂姆·库克将于今年晚些时候卸任首席执行官一职，由硬件工程高级副总裁约翰·特纳斯接任。
苹果表示，库克将出任苹果董事会执行董事长，接替阿瑟·莱文森。拥有25年苹果工龄的特纳斯将于9月1日正式就任首席执行官一职。
库克在一份声明中表示：“担任苹果首席执行官，有幸领导这样一家卓越的公司，是我人生最大的荣幸。我全身心热爱苹果，也万分感激能有机会与如此才华横溢、富于创新、充满创意且心怀热忱的团队共事，他们始终坚定不移地致力于丰富客户生活，打造全球顶尖的产品与服务。”
库克还称赞特纳斯“拥有工程师的头脑、创新者的灵魂，以及以诚信和荣誉引领团队的初心”。
特纳斯在一份声明中表示：“我极为荣幸能有机会延续苹果的使命。我的职业生涯几乎全部在苹果度过，我很幸运曾在史蒂夫·乔布斯手下工作，也有幸得到蒂姆·库克的指导。能参与塑造那些改变了我们与世界、与彼此互动方式的产品与体验，是我的荣幸。”
现年65岁的库克于2011年接替苹果联合创始人史蒂夫·乔布斯出任首席执行官。在掌舵苹果近15年的时间里，库克专注于推出并拓展包括Apple Pay、Apple TV和Apple Music在内的服务业务，这些业务每年为公司带来超过1000亿美元的收入。库克还主导了Apple Watch和AirPods等新产品的推出。
重任在肩
在库克担任首席执行官期间，苹果的市值增长了约3.6万亿美元。
“近几个月来，媒体一直将特纳斯列为库克最有可能的继任者，因此他获得这一职位并不会让人感到意外（相较于拥有更多软件背景的人选，最终敲定特纳斯，也体现了苹果将自身定位为硬件优先的企业），”维塔勒知识公司的股票分析师亚当·克里萨富利在给投资者的报告中说道。
然而韦德布什证券公司的科技分析师丹·艾夫斯表示，库克此时卸任正值苹果的关键时期。
“接任将是一项艰巨的任务，库克此时卸任首席执行官一职虽合乎情理，但也引发了诸多疑问，”艾夫斯在一份报告中称。“苹果正在进行人工智能战略的重大转型，而传奇首席执行官库克此时离任，着实令人意外。”

Tim Cook will step down as Apple’s CEO later this year and be replaced by John Ternus, a senior vice president of hardware engineering, the technology company announced on Monday.
Cook will become executive chairman of Apple’s board of directors, replacing Arthur Levinson, the company said. Ternus, a 25-year Apple veteran, will assume the role of CEO on September 1, the company said.
“It has been the greatest privilege of my life to be the CEO of Apple and to have been trusted to lead such an extraordinary company,” Cook said in a statement. “I love Apple with all of my being, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with a team of such ingenious, innovative, creative and deeply caring people who have been unwavering in their dedication to enriching the lives of our customers and creating the best products and services in the world.”
Cook also praised Ternus, saying he “has the mind of an engineer, the soul of an innovator, and the heart to lead with integrity and with honor.”
“I am profoundly grateful for this opportunity to carry Apple’s mission forward,” Ternus said in a statement. “Having spent almost my entire career at Apple, I have been lucky to have worked under Steve Jobs and to have had Tim Cook as my mentor. It has been a privilege to help shape the products and experiences that have changed so much of how we interact with the world and with one another.”
Cook, 65, succeeded Apple co-founder Steve Jobs as CEO in 2011. Over the course of his nearly 15 years at the helm of Apple, Cook has focused on launching and expanding services including Apple Pay, Apple TV and Apple Music, which generate more than $100 billion a year for the firm. Cook also oversaw the launches of new products including the Apple Watch and AirPods.
Big shoes
Apple’s market value has surged roughly $3.6 trillion over the course of Cook’s tenure as CEO.
“Ternus’s name has been mentioned throughout the media over the last several months as the most likely Cook successor, so the fact he’s getting the job won’t be shocking to people (and the fact its Ternus instead of someone with more of a software background speaks to how Apple sees itself as a hardware-first organization),” Adam Crisafulli an equity analyst with Vital Knowledge, said in a note to investors.
Yet Wedbush Securities technology analyst Dan Ives said Cook is leaving at a critical time for Apple.
“These will be big shoes to fill, and the timing of Cook exiting stage left as CEO could make sense but also creates questions,” Ives said in a report. “Apple is making a major transition on its AI strategy, and longtime CEO and legendary Cook leaving now is a surprise.”
