Wen made the call at a symposium with some 100 students of the prestigious Tsinghua University, who have chosen to work in China's less-developed western regions or at the grassroots level after graduation.
Wen's Tsinghua tour marked his annual visit to university campuses since 2003 ahead of the Chinese Youth Day, which falls on Monday this year.
In more than one hour's time, Wen listened to the students' stories and gave his advices on their future development, encouraging them to "be resolute-minded, hard working and down-to-earth to achieve your goals."
Sui Shaochun, a mechanics students, said he had landed a job in an aeroplane manufacturing company in southwestern Sichuan Province and was ready to devote himself to the country's project of building its own big planes.

Wen said the future of a young person and that of the nation were interdependent, and "the young should bind their own destinies with that of the country."
Another graduate-to-be Cheng Li told Wen she would work in Wenchuan of Sichuan, the epicenter of last year's devastating May 12 earthquake, believing the reconstruction work would be "more meaningful than anything else."
Wen said the post-quake reconstruction requires a large number of professionals and he encouraged Cheng to play her role. "The love and devotion to the people is the most lofty part of human morals," said he.
Wen praised Zou Shenglan and Yan Weilong after learning they had volunteered to work in Tibetan villages.
He told them to be prepared for the hardship in rural areas. "I believe after being tempered at the grassroots level in Tibet, you'll become more mature," he said. "And when you look back at that part of experience in the future, you'll have no regret."
"I want you all to be well-educated people with moral integrity and work ability, and be of use to the people," Wen said before concluding the discussion, followed by having lunch with the students at their dinning hall.Chinese Youth Day & May Fourth Movement五四运动简介
　　Chinese Youth Day is a holiday for commemoration of May Fourth Movement which happened on May 4, 1919 in China. China had entered World War I on the side of the Allied Triple Entente in 1917 with the condition that all German spheres of influence, such as Shandong, would be returned to China, and the movement took place under the background after the war.
　　China as one of the Allied victories attended the Versailles Peace Conference held in Paris of France in January 1919. The representatives of the Chinese government put forth the following requests:
　　1.the abolition of all privileges of foreign powers in China, such as extraterritoriality
　　2.the cancelling of the "Twenty-One Demands" with the Japanese
　　3.the return to China of the territory and rights of Shandong, which Japan had taken from Germany during World War I.
　　However, all the requests were rejected by the conference. To make things worse, the Versailles Treaty of April 1919 awarded German rights in Shandong Province to Japan. Some unpatriotic Chinese politicians were prepared to accept the humiliating treaty.
　　On May 4, 1919, an increasing number of 3000 college students mainly from three universities in Beijing broke through the police cordon and gathered in front of Tian'anmen. They requested to punish several governmental traitors and raised such slogans as "Struggle for the sovereignty externally, get rid of the national traitors at home", "Do away with the 'Twenty-One Demands", "Don't sign the Versailles Treaty", "Boycott Japanese goods", "Rather be a piece of jade than a whole tile" and "Recover our sovereignty of Shandong".
　　The wrathful students burned the house of one of the traitors after the police and troops began to repress the movement with arrest of 32 students. Then, the patriotic movement spread to the whole country, Chinese worker and businessmen were joining in the protest after the arrest of May 4.
　　The May Fourth Movement was a thorough patriotic movement with uncompromisement against imperialism and feudalism in China. It promoted the Chinese historical process and spread Marxism throughout the nation.
　　The date of annual May 4 was set as a holiday of Chinese Youth Day in December 1949 by the Government Administration Council, dedicated to the youths of China.
　　五四运动简介
　　五四青年节是为纪念日中国学生爱国运动而设立的节日。
　　1917年，中国加入协约国参与第一次世界大战。然而，一战结束后，中国虽然作为战胜的协约国一方，但国力弱小，巴黎和会并未理睬中国的要求。五四运动随即爆发。
　　1919年1月，中国作为协约国战胜国的身份参加了在巴黎凡尔赛举行的和平会议，中国政府代表提出了如下要求：
　　1、废除外国在华特权
　　2、取消二十一条
　　3、归还中国山东领土及主权
　　中国政府的这些正当要求却遭到巴黎和会的拒绝。会议竟决定日本接管德国在华的各种特权。对这丧权辱国的条约，中华民国代表居然准备签字承认。消息传来，举国震怒，群情激愤。以学生为先导的五四爱国运动就如火山爆发一般地开始了
　　5月4日，北京三所高校的3000多名学生代表冲破军警阻挠，云集天安门，他们打出“还我青岛”、“收回山东权利”、“拒绝在巴黎和会上签字”、“废除二十一条”、“抵制日货”、“宁肯玉碎，勿为瓦全”、“外争国权，内惩国贼”等口号，并且要求惩办交通总长曹汝霖、币制局总裁陆宗舆、驻日公使章宗祥，学生游行队伍移至曹宅，痛打了章宗祥，并火烧曹宅，引发“火烧赵家楼”事件。随后，军警给予镇压，并逮捕了学生代表32人。
　　五四爱国运动是一次彻底的反对帝国主义和封建主义的爱国运动，这场爱国运动推动了历史的进程，促进了马克思主义在中国的广泛传播。1949年12月，中央人民政府政务院正式宣布每年5月4日为青年节，勉励当代青年人发扬五四运动所倡导的“爱国、进步、民主、科学”精神。
