Gates responds that he will not serve Microsoft CEO again

The US technology blog Business Insider reported on Tuesday that in August this year, Steve Ballmer announced that he would resign from Microsoft’s chief executive within one year. This news shocked the world and many people think that Bill Gates May be replaced by Ballmer, once again served as CEO of the company.

Of course, from the current situation, Gates should no longer take the position of CEO of Microsoft, because he has been busy with his foundation work, and Gates seems to have no intention to take over this position. In spite of this, the industry’s rumors about this issue are endless. In this regard, Gates said that he may be more involved in Microsoft's hiring new CEO related work, the return to Microsoft's return to CEO's issue, the possibility of small and small.

Today, BI also directly interviewed Gates on this issue. However, Gates did not firmly answer "no succession" when answering this question. Gates's answer is: "No, I used to be Microsoft's chief executive for a while. Today, I'm the chairman of Microsoft's board of directors and will be partially involved in helping Microsoft find new CEOs." Of course, from this statement Gates should indicate that he will no longer serve as chief executive officer of Microsoft, but this negative does not seem to be the strongest. However, BI still believes that from this answer, Gates will not take over as CEO of Microsoft. If the possibility of Gates succeeding Ballmer before this interview is 0, then the possibility is more than now. Only 1%.

The following is BI interview and Gates's main answer:

BI: You have always been passionate about global health and poverty. But is there such a possibility - to abandon the current foundation work and become Microsoft CEO again?

Gates: No, I used to be Microsoft's chief executive for a while. Today, I'm the chairman of Microsoft's board of directors. I will be involved in some of the related work. My full-time job is still on this side of the foundation. I won't be dedicated to Microsoft CEO this post.
