This looks like it might be davidii or a close hybrid. Try comparing this description (http://www.the-genus-lilium.com/davidii.htm) with your plant.

The very light orange colour suggests a hybrid of sorts.
If it is a species there is a number of choices. It does not look American so you might find it with help of flora of China which is very comprehensible.
Link to Lilium is:

A picture of the complete plant showing leaves and general habitus would be helpful.
I agree that it could be a form of davidii but if so one I have bnot seen.
