What was christian greys situation

At just 27 years of age, Christian Grey is worth billions. But as we learned in the first film, Grey Enterprises Holdings made him a shitload of money, thanks to many smart investments.

Because novelist E. If he has a bunch of off-shore or not in Seattle investments that make him money, then acquiring an independent press might be a great way to give some of his investments small enough profits to keep his tax situation clean.

So, by having Grey Enterprises Holdings reveal its faux-environmental good deed, the company actually succeeds in looking more realistic, not less. In the second movie, Fifty Shades Darker , Ana learns that Christian was adopted, and that his birth mother was a sex worker and drug addict who committed suicide when Christian was young. As a result, Christian entered the foster care system, until he was eventually adopted by Grace and Carrick and brought into the wealthy Grey family.

Audiences knew at this point in the series that Christian had strong feelings of disgust and hatred towards his birth mother, and that, as he told Ana later on, he tended to pick submissive women who looked like her in order to enact a messed-up form of revenge. It's already pretty depressing stuff, but Fifty Shades Freed takes things a step further.

In this movie, we learn that when Christian was in foster care, so was a young Jack Hyde. This guy, as we know, grew up to be the dangerous, unstable man who was Ana's boss at the publishing company before being being fired for assaulting Ana in Fifty Shades Darker.

Jack, apparently, has always resented Christian for being adopted instead of him while they were in foster care, as shown by a message he leaves Christian in Freed : "you owe me a life.

This resentment — in addition to obvious other mental instability — makes Jack willing to do anything in order to get revenge on Christian, including kidnap his sister and demand millions of dollars. Or do it on the phone? Or do it via email which they end up doing anyway because Ana does such a terrible job? And Anastasia does. But… why? Anastasia has a car. She has a blue car. But it is! I cannot figure out why Ana would not drive her own car.

Hear me out. I lived with a roommate in New York for two years. She and I are good friends, and we have been friends since college. I have never once kissed her on the head. And now I ask you: why do you think Ana is still a virgin at 22? And yet every single person we see in his employ is a stick-thin, gorgeous woman in porn-high heels.

How is that not a red flag? Does he ask for photographs with resumes? This is the headquarters of a major business enterprise, and Anastasia is impersonating someone in order to get inside.

We already established how weird it is that she sent her roommate and not another newspaper reporter, but now I have to wonder how lax security is at Grey HQ. I know that Anastasia is not a professional reporter and this is her first interview, but what the screenwriters presumably believed was flirty banter is actually just extremely rude and made me very uncomfortable.

He is a year old billionaire giving you a few minutes of his time to conduct an in-person interview for a student newspaper. This allows Christian to spend more time with Ana by agreeing to do an impromptu photoshoot, but also: what the hell? How are there no photos available of a famous billionaire? What does this school paper normally use? There are numerous archives and photo services like Getty for this very purpose.

At their first interview, Christian is extremely flirty, and he asks Anastasia out to coffee. Ending the date that very moment is the most drama queen behavior I have ever seen. Okay, a little harsh, but fine.

And then he sends her a very expensive gift: first editions of her favorite book. This is a romantic gift!
