Chung Chao-cheng (Chinese: 鍾肇政; 20 January 1925 - 16 May 2020) was a sixth-generation Hakka writer, born and raised in Taiwan. He is a proponent and promoter of Taiwan Nativist Literature. "We are pioneers of Taiwanese literature, a literature with unique characteristics," he once said. "The use of native dialects should be a part of expressing those unique characteristics, though it will take our determined effort."

Known as the doyen of Taiwanese literature, Chung's novel The Dull Ice Flower was adapted into a Golden Horse-winning film released in 1989.
