Dai Yongge (Chinese: 戴永革; pinyin: Dài Yǒnggé; born 1968) is a Chinese businessman and investor. He is currently the Executive Chairman of Renhe Commercial Holdings Company Limited, a listed investment holding company who specialise in the operation of shopping centres transformed from air-raid shelters. They have centres in 30 cities across China, including Harbin, Guangzhou, Wuhan and Shenyang.
Dai also owns football clubs Beijing Renhe, KSV Roeselare and Reading.
In 2012, Dai's company completed the takeover of Shaanxi Baorong Chanba. One year later, they relocated the club to Guizhou and re-branded them Guizhou Renhe. After two years in Guizhou, the club moved to Beijing and became Beijing Renhe, who currently compete in China League One.
In August 2016, Dai and his sister, Dai Xiu Lu, were the subject of a potential £130m takeover of Premier League club Hull City.
In May 2017, Renhe bought 75% of the shares in English club Reading, after the Football League announced that they had no objections to the group's takeover.
In June 2017, it was announced that Dai had contacted Johan Plancke, Chairman of Belgian club KSV Roeselare, to recruit two coaches to train Chinese youth coaches during an internship planned for August of the same year.
