Chang also reiterated that he will remain as chairman for TSMC, even after the new CEO or co-CEOs are named, dismissing speculation about his retirement plans.

TSMC's appointment of new co-COOs is part of the company's CEO succession plan, announced a few months ago. He will relinquish the CEO role by mid-2014, which means that his successors will have a few years to sort out a pecking order.
