I make the size from 160m to 5m in my local. how to push to github? push -f not useful. after push clone the https://github.com/Jzvd/JiaoZiVideoPlayer is still 160m.

You have to push force all rewritten references (branches and tags) of your clean local repository. Or else other references from GitHub still point of old commits - before cleanup so with previous blobs.
