Call fortune teller
Just like many of his successors, Li Zhen, former Party chief of provincial office of State Administration of Taxation, became agitated when asked to attend a meeting on March 1, 2000. He immediately called a fortune teller, who promised him that he will be "all right". Li was placed under investigation as soon as he appeared at the meeting.
