新任CEO具有半导体背景，而前CEO则来自移动电话部门。

    苹果（Apple）诉三星（Samsung）侵犯专利案将于7月30日开庭，而目前还看不到双方有任何和解的迹象。就在这时，三星于上周四更换了掌门人。

    据路透社（Reuters）报道，已经在三星集团工作27年的权五铉将接替崔志成，成为三星新任CEO。而崔志成上个月刚刚在旧金山按法院的要求与苹果CEO蒂姆•库克进行了调解会谈。

    不过双方的会谈没有任何结果。

    我们不会对三星高层变动的细节不懂装懂地妄加揣测，不过据中国网站TechWeb.com.cn的报道，新任CEO权五铉来自三星的半导体和液晶显示器部门，而对这两个部门来说，苹果是他们最重要的客户之一。

    而前任CEO崔志成曾担任三星移动电话部门总裁。这个部门去年已经取代了苹果、诺基亚（Nokia）和黑莓手机生产商RIM，成为世界第一大智能手机厂商。

    苹果认为三星手机热卖的原因是因为模仿了苹果的工业设计。另外，三星采用的谷歌（Google）安卓（Android）操作系统也被乔布斯斥为彻头彻尾的“剽窃”。

    现在苹果在欧洲、亚洲和美国都对三星提起了专利诉讼。

    最近苹果又对三星发动了新一轮法律攻势，上周四它要求美国国际贸易委员会（the U.S. International Trade Commission）禁止进口三星最新款智能手机——也就是近来热卖的Galaxy S III。

    The new man comes from the semiconductor side, the old from mobile phones.

    With an Apple (AAPL) patent trial set to begin July 30 and no settlement in sight, Samsung replaced its chairman Thursday.

    According to Reuters, the new CEO is Kwon Oh-hyun, a 27-year veteran of the Korean electronics giant. He succeeds Choi Gee-sung, who met with Apple CEO Tim Cook last month in San Francisco for two days of court-ordered mediation talks.

    They failed to come to terms.

    We don't pretend to understand all the ramifications of the executive reshuffling, but according to TechWeb China, Kwon comes out of Samsung's semiconductor and liquid crystal display businesses, two divisions that count Apple as among their most important customers.

    Choi, the former CEO, had previously served as president of Samsung's mobile phone division, which in the past year has overtaken Apple -- as well as Nokia (NOK) and Research in Motion (RIMM) -- to become the world's leading smartphone vendor.

    Samsung, Apple charges, built its lead on the strength of Apple's industrial designs and an operating system -- Google's (GOOG) Android -- that Steve Jobs famously characterized as total iPhone "rip-off."

    Samsung is now being sued by Apple for patent infringement in Europe, Asia and the U.S.

    In its latest legal offensive, Apple asked the U.S. International Trade Commission Tuesday for a preliminary injunction banning importation of Samsung's newest smartphone, the hot-selling Galaxy S III.
